    Opening Google Chrome Search from Excel Cell Using VBA without Selenium

    Dear Forum,

    I want to open a Google Chrome Search with values already present in the Active Cell, Luckily I found a code on this but the code always opens 3 Instances of Google Chrome Tabs one the first one with the correct option and the other two are useless instances, I want someone to help me perfect the code I am trying to build to make it easier for me.
