Question [Q] Chrome browser question

Sorry if this is not the right place to ask this, but is there any way to adjust the settings in the Google Chrome browser so that it shows regular websites instead of their mobile versions? Thanks.

Yes:
1. Open browser and type about:debug in the address bar
2. Tab the menu icon in the upper right corner
3. Select Settings
4. Select Debug
5. Select UAString
6. Select Desktop

That will do it.
