chrome://flags/#download-bubble disable it.


Thank you, came here looking for this.

It seems like over the past few years Chrome has gotten more comfortable with shoving stuff into the top right section, with icons just popping in and out based on context. I used to have muscle memory for my extensions there, and now from right to left there's a kebab settings overflow button, a profile switcher icon (I don't even use profiles), a reading list button (again, not using that), an extensions overflow puzzle piece icon, and finally my extensions. I always have to think twice before clicking anything up there.

Now having the download button that's only sometimes there is one more thing to throw me off. I couldn't even figure out what would make it disappear. I'd clear the downloads list and it's still there.
