# Disabling the calculator in the address bar

Every Chromebook comes with a so-called **Omnibox** by default. That is the box you type in to search, to paste or type a link, but it is also a calculator you can use to solve a maths problem.
Very handy, but not welcome when students need to practise their arithmetic skills. Sometimes the idea is that they learn to do maths without using a calculator.

Fortunately, that calculator can be disabled from the Google Admin console. Go to:

|| Devices > Chrome > Settings > Users & browsers
[Scroll to the Omnibox search provider section](https://admin.google.com/ac/chrome/settings/user?hl=nl#omnibox_search_provider) and select the correct organisational unit (OU) on the left.

Under **Search Suggest**, choose **Never allow users to use Search Suggest** to turn the feature off.
Click **SAVE** in the top right, and doing sums without a calculator is the default again.

This applies to the address bar in the Chrome browser, but also to the Omnibox in the "shelf" at the bottom of the screen.
