Shortcut for Google search box

Is there a short cut for Google search box as in the picture below in Google chrome? Thank you.

The question here is different with what I am asking. What I want to find shortcut is the red box in the picture below not the address bar as in the link.

1If you start typing on the page, it'll take you to the search-box by default (Just tested, using chromium based browser) – RiA – 2016-03-28T06:41:45.903

@RiA Latest Chrome here (version 61.0.3163.79 (Build oficial) (64 bits), Windows 10) and if I type on the page it doesn't take me to the search bar. – Metafaniel – 2017-09-07T17:26:23.657

@RiA also does not work for me with 62.0.3202.75 (not that the browser version should have something to do with it I think). All extensions disabled. – bugybunny – 2017-11-05T00:09:34.677

Yes, I just checked. It doesn't work anymore on my end either. I suppose they removed the feature. – RiA – 2017-11-05T01:38:56.203

Since this feature was very unfortunately removed by Google in July 2017, you need a browser extension to add it back. One that I find useful is: Google Search Keyboard Shortcuts. With this extension, you can just start typing and it will bring you back to the search box.
