== Hide Chrome Profile Management Menu ==

Note: This used to be called the Chrome Avatar Menu

# Enter address: chrome://flags
# Search for "enable-new-profile-management": chrome://flags/#enable-new-profile-management
#* "Enable new profile management system: Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android - Enables the new profile management system, including profile lock and the new avatar menu UI. #enable-new-profile-management"
# Change from "Default" to "Disabled"
# Click "Relaunch Now"

There is a known [https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=513899 bug] that causes the "Disabled" to be ignored. In the mean time one can always add '--disable-new-avatar-menu" to the Chrome shortcut link, which still works.
