I hate that the latest version of Chrome seems to have removed the icon for "Go" at the end of the browser bar...at least I can't find one.
That means that every time I want to copy a url into the browser bar and go to the site, I have to remove my hand from the mouse, find and press the Enter key on the keyboard, then move hand back to mouse. Huge waste of time and bad design.
I use a Mac OS , and tried to change one of the "Keyboard Shortcuts" (>System Preferences >Keyboards) to another command for the Enter key --like Cmd + W, or Cmd + Shift + D-- but neither change worked; just did what they would have done previously (closed a tab, etc).
Is there something I'm missing? Or is there perhaps another way to get around having to physically press the Enter key to go to a url. Or am I changing the Keyboard Shortcut incorrectly?
Or any other suggestions, short of reinstalling an older version of Chrome?
Thanks for any help!

What does "hover over Enter" mean in this case? Hover usually refers to holding the pointer of the mouse over something on the screen as far as I know, but where is "Enter" on the screen?
Bex Ed, I am asking about a *custom* shortcut that could be completed using the left hand, so I can leave my right hand on the mouse for scrolling after being taken to the new url, further browsing, etc.
Yay, thank you anonymous! That will definitely work if I can't find a left-hand keyboard shortcut. Learn something new every day.
