@leocg So I'm very sorry :(. Thanks for the answer. I don't understand why the developer didn't add this function there. Maybe "Opera" will answer ...;).

@antena It's been a while that most browsers don't change the color of visited links

@leocg I wonder why ... "Politics"? "Too complicated"? Can't anyone program an add-on?

@antena Add-ons already exist, though they do a lot more.

The problem isn't so much browsers as websites. If a website says they want visited links blue, the browser does that. An add-on like Stylus can override what the page says for visited link color (or text style, or anything else).

@antena More dynamic web, I guess. Pages are no longer something static, they change at anytime.

@leocg I probably won't explain it. I do not speak English. but I'll try;): ----- My computer remembers where I was (and what sites I visited). The ones I visited may remain red. All I need is the color in "Google search". Not anywhere else. Only when I search through Google. It doesn't work either;)? ------ (See picture. The color difference is now very small.)

There is a Google Chrome extension that works. The only drawback is that the visited link color is set to red. The name of the extension is "Visited" and the address is -
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/visited/bfcodeehkjogenemacopdbhabjebnbah?hl=en-US

I hope this helps.....

Why you want to change it?

@antena I have searched the same tool. I try many of these and now I use this: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/color-links/hiponeioelghhaljfflaaflpccedbdem

Don’t forget to pin it this extension to use it where you want. For Google Search results, as leocg said, go to its Manage extension page to “Allow access to search page results”, and if you want to "Allow access on private pages".

@kendle321 For some people, the difference between the colours by default of the links and the visited links is not sufficient.
