Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension bypasses "Google Lens" results and takes you to the normal image results like how it used to be.

It also adds a "Search Google for image" context menu item that will open the image results in a new tab.

Post-installation instructions for manually removing the old "Search image with Google Lens" context menu item (the one that opens results in the Side Bar) can be found at https://github.com/fanfare/disablegooglelens/blob/master/CHROME.md

It worked like a charm...until a few months ago. Now it doesn't work at all. Images dragged and dropped still go to Google Lens.

Shows the image results in the lens side bar. Nice solution.

Doesn't work (Chrome Version 108.0.5359.99 (Official Build) (32-bit) Windows10). Brings up a completely blank page called "http://lens.google.com/(long string of characters)" so it's still using google lens, not disabling it as it's title states. Is there an actually working extension to actually let me use the REAL google image search that has nothing to do with the completely useless "lens" site? (that old search function still works perfectly on a much older version of chrome)

Very useful! One downside that I've noticed for the 'Google (w/o Lens)' sidebar fix is that it blocks certain other features, such as Google Translate, but I'd rather learn to live with the sidebar than Google Lens
