Then expand the launcher window with the caret up arrow near the top. Locate \u201cSettings\u201d in the launcher (you may have to scroll to the second page of icons) and select it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-758277\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/chromebook_settings.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"333\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In Settings, click \u201cSecurity and Privacy\u201d in the sidebar, then select \u201cManage Other People.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-758276\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/click_manage_other_people.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"In Settings, click &quot;Security and Privacy,&quot; then select &quot;Manage Other People.&quot;\" width=\"650\" height=\"377\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In Manage Other People settings, click the switch beside \u201cEnable Guest Browsing\u201d to turn it off.
