chrome://flagsinto the address bar and press Enter. This opens Chrome's experimental features page. -
Search for Lens Flag: In the search bar at the top of the
chrome://flagspage, type "Lens". -
Disable the Flag: Look for a flag related to "Lens search" or similar wording concerning the address bar or a context menu. The reference suggests a flag related to intrusive Lens search integration. Change the setting from "Default" or "Enabled" to "Disabled".
