Assigning Keyboard Shortcuts to Google Chrome Bookmarks
Unfortunately, it isn’t possible to assign a keyboard shortcut to a Chrome bookmark directly. The only built-in Google Chrome bookmarks shortcut is Ctrl + Shift + O, which opens the Chrome bookmarks manager, but you still need to click each bookmark to open it. Instead, you’ll need to use a Chrome extension (a third-party add-on) to make this work. Several options exist, but one of the easiest to use is Shortkeys. You can use Shortkeys to create custom keyboard shortcuts in Chrome for any task, including opening up Chrome bookmarks that you regularly visit. To assign keyboard shortcuts to Chrome bookmarks: Once you’ve refreshed your Chrome tabs (or restarted Chrome), your shortcut will be ready to go. If you want to disable it at any point, repeat the steps above and press the Active in all inputs slider to the Off position. This will stop the keyboard shortcut from activating until you restore the shortcut again. If you run into any difficulties, check out the Shortkeys documentation for further advice.
