Google Chrome following to different desktops

Hi there,


I need to be able to switch between desktops for my job- in particular, switch between google chrome work spaces. Whenever I attempt to switch desktops, the same google chrome window follows me. How do I get each desktop in Mac to have their own google chrome workspace? I'm also noticing other windows following to other desktops. I feel something in my settings isn't correct on the mac.


Thank you in advance!

If you control click on an app's icon in the Dock, you can set the app to a specific Desktop.

no! :) Chrome is only one app.

specifically different chrome windows on different desktops with different tabs in each. I'm sorry I'm obviously ignorant with tech issues! I may not call things the right words haha! Thank you so much for your time and help!

You're welcome.

Yes, that article is helpful. However, the issue is when I go to another desktop, and click the google chrome icon, it continuously goes back to a google chrome with a bunch of tabs open. I want to work in SEPARATE google chromes. When I click on the options of the google chrome app, I only have all desktops or NONE as my options. Whether I click one or the other, it continues to do this. Any idea if it is settings on my mac, and not google chrome specifically? Thanks so much.
