Google Lens bug traps Chrome users by hiding the close button

TL;DR Google Lens has not been letting Chrome users close out of the side panel.

The problem appears to lie with a CSS issue from a Chrome update to the Lens overlay.

Google said the issue is fixed but some people still have the issue even after the latest update.

Google Lens , the AI-powered search tool that lets you find what you’re looking for with images instead of words, has not been letting Chrome users close out of the feature. That should now be fixed, according to Google, though not everyone affected seems to agree.

Reports on Reddit and Google’s Chrome Help Support forums started coming in about a week ago: The “x” to close out of Google Lens was missing for many. None of the usual fixes — closing tabs, shutting Chrome altogether, clearing cache and cookies, and restarting computers — worked to rectify the situation. One user who replied to a post in a Chrome sub shared a temporary solution to closing out of Lens: dragging the tab with Lens open into a new window and then dragging it back into the old window.
