The Purpose of a Home Tab
A home tab, which literally is the shape of a house is a tab used to go back to the original page or a new tab as per the requirements of the user. For instance, if you have opened many windows on Google Chrome, and now want to open a new tab, or want to go to your home page ( which could be any webpage defined by you), all you have to do is click on this home tab. This will either open a new window for you or will open the website which you have saved information for in the customized home page. This home tab is disabled by default when you open Google Chrome. To make this tab active you will have to follow the steps as mentioned below.
