Redirects Google Lens to the normal image results

This extension bypasses "Google Lens" results and takes you to the normal image results like how it used to be.

It also adds a "Search Google for image" context menu item that will open the image results in a new tab.

Post-installation instructions for manually removing the old "Search image with Google Lens" context menu item (the one that opens results in the Side Bar) can be found at https://github.com/fanfare/disablegooglelens/blob/master/CHROME.md

tech287 tech287 2022-12-25 Doesn't work (Chrome Version 108.0.5359.99 (Official Build) (32-bit) Windows10). Brings up a completely blank page called "http://lens.google.com/(long string of characters)" so it's still using google lens, not disabling it as it's title states. Is there an actually working extension to actually let me use the REAL google image search that has nothing to do with the completely useless "lens" site? (that old search function still works perfectly on a much older version of chrome)
AngryJellyfish 2022-12-18 Very useful! One downside that I've noticed for the 'Google (w/o Lens)' sidebar fix is that it blocks certain other features, such as Google Translate, but I'd rather learn to live with the sidebar than Google Lens
Starsky Wong 2022-12-18 It works! Thank you!
Cyril Garsaud 2022-12-16 Fonctionne parfaitement. Les mises à jour de Chrome empêchent de désactiver Google Lens depuis chrome://flags, il devient de plus en plus difficile de faire des recherches par image.
Igor Kuznetsov 2022-12-14 It works, yeah! So angry because of that Google Lens "feature", what is the point if you cannot chose how to search your image? Thanks to creator of this extension, you're the problem solver! God bless you!
