To enable an experiment:

1. [Open Settings](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/settings.md.txt#open).
2. In the **Experiments** tab, look for the experiment you would like to try or search for it using the **Filter** box.
3. Enable the ![Checkbox.](https://developer.chrome.com/static/docs/devtools/settings/experiments/image/checkbox-19aa473fcaa1f.svg) checkbox next to the experiment.
4. Close ![Settings.](https://developer.chrome.com/static/docs/devtools/settings/experiments/image/settings-c918a263a8f53.svg) **Settings**.
5. Click **Reload DevTools** or **Restart Chrome** in the prompt at the top.

The next time DevTools opens, the experiment is enabled. To disable an experiment, clear the corresponding checkbox.
