Removing the google chrome profile icon

Few days ago this blue profile thing was slapped on chrome symbols on my computer.
I do not like the way it looks, is it possible to have the bare chrome symbol?

For Windows 10: Right-click on the taskbar and go to Taskbar Settings and turn off "Show badges on taskbar buttons"

In chrome settings you can see multiple account names. If you delete all but one, that blue symbol disappears.

None of the above solutions worked. I've tried a number of things and it doesn't seem like it's possible to disable this.

Of course, if you only have one profile it will work.

What I did for this is open Chrome:

1. Right-click on the Chrome icon with the profile icon
2. Right-click on the Chrome icon with the profile icon again
3. Click "Properties"
4. Click "Change icon"
5. Go to the directory of Chrome.exe
6. Choose chrome.exe
7. Choose the preffered icon It worked for me.

What worked for me: Right Click profile icon in Chrome browser > Go to Manage People > Remove extra people profiles so that it just has one profile > icon gets removed
