How to change the default black address bar in Chrome 74


It looks so horrible, the black address bar and the new dark theme. I really want to get the old one back, not because I'm resistant to changes I just really don't like it it's too much contrast and is always in the peripheral view compared to the white pages. I tried changing to the pro-grey theme and it worked fine, but after the update it seems like they don't allow to change the black address bar!!!


Solution

    1. Open your Terminal
    2. Enter next command: ​defaults write com.google.Chrome NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance -bool YES
    3. Relaunch Chrome app
    4. You are beautiful...
