Dropbox Dash turned into main homepage in Google Chrome

Disable Dash for new tab in Chrome

I installed the Dash extension in Chrome (MacOS), but now a new tab displays the Dash homepage, rather than the old page I had selected. How can I disable the Dash homepage for New Tabs in Chrome?

Hi @SBA93101 and @woodae,

 

Thanks for reaching out and taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback. We appreciate your efforts in helping us improve our product! As it stands, the intention is for the Dash Start Page to be the primary experience for each new tab in order to encourage efficiency. However, we've heard your feedback and the team is exploring alternate options to having the Start Page be the default for every new tab. 
 
We are committed to providing you with the best possible experience, and your feedback plays a crucial role in helping us achieve this goal. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us either on the Community or via Support.

Same problem here, looking for same solution.

 

I've disabled the addon - the only solution I can find. It seems to have taken complete control of the new tab settings.

You offer to help everyone with this issue, but I can not find a single answer to this question.  I'm fine with you being all grateful for the input and feedback and stuff.  You're welcome.

Now, I want to get rid of this pushy overbearing and rather sneaky thing, and to get my computer back...including the new tab settings.  How do I do that?  Please answer with actual instructions or, if you can't, tell me that.

Answering that quickly would be good.

I love using Dash because of stacks but I don't want it to be my main homepage in my Chrome.

 

When the Dropbox Dash extension is turned on, I CANNOT see my Google bookmarks and shortcuts which is essential for my work. It would be nice if the extension stays on the extension bar and can be turned on/off onto another tab when clicked. Is there anyway I can get around this? 62E30E31-36CA-4B51-91F0-A095E860E39E.JPG

Nope.  I just stopped using Dropbox.  If this keeps up...this nothing, I mean... I'm going to dump it and uninstall and just throw it on the pile with all the others that can't seem to get this customer support thing.
