It keeps happening and I like to play videogames while listening to something on youtube, how can I fix this without having to manually unmute it manually?
A bottom scrollbar just appears when I full screen it in chrome, any fix?
Chrome automatically brings to front Chrome Windows and even maximizes randomly to bring itself for the front most window. I always have 2 Chrome windows.
This occurs on 2 fully independent Windows 7 machines. Happens even if ALL Extensions/Addons are removed.
How to stop this behaviour?
Hello everyone.
Idk if this is a Chrome feature or not but I will start here.
I am trying to create a spreadsheet of all my ebooks that I have gotten over the years on Humble Bundle but the website doessn't let you click and drag to copy the text. As shown in the Image it only highlights the right side and not all the actual titles I need on the left.
Last time I did this I specifically remember that I somehow was able to Draw a rectangle on screen and I would be able to copy/paste only the text that was in the box but now for the life of me I can not remember how I did that.
Hi there! I use chrome on my phone, and have WAY too many tabs open (it's the ':D' icon in the number box). Going through and bookmarking/sorting them on my phone is way too bleh, though, and I prefer to do that kind of stuff on my laptop. Is there a way to open all/a bunch of these tabs on my laptop, so I can sort through them? Thank you in advance!
Becomes so slow/laggy especially, when I open more than 30-35 tabs. Btw this wasn't happens before this version. Also my cpu (7500f) usage reaches 100% (almost all used by chrome), when this happens. Looks like something went wrong after the update.
Looks like I'm not the only person: https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/320487906/chrome-has-suddenly-become-very-slow-version-132-0-6834-111?hl=en
Shot in the dark, but is there a way to change the system time on my PC without losing internet in Chrome? There's something I'm trying to do on my PC which requires my system time to be set two months ahead of what the the actual time is for the rest of this month (moving forward as well, not a static date), but when I change the system time, Chrome becomes essentially unusable. Is there any form of workaround for this? What I need it for is time-sensitive and requires Chrome access, so I can't really afford to wait two months.
Hello folks, chrome is my primary browser on iOS. I’ve got everything up to date. Reinstalled it. Rebooted. No tabs open.
Still an insane amount of battery usage. Is anyone experiencing something similar? Any know workarounds?
This started a few days ago. The one thing I did after reinstalling was enabling sync again. Will try stopping that now… it’s the only explanation I find.
Like the post said, when I go to a site like mayoclinic.com, it redirects me to their paid diet site instead of the main page. That page does offer people affiliate income so I think it's some sort of virus. How do I figure out what is causing it and how do I get rid of it so this behavior stops?
It's basically a non issue but occasionally (not always) when opening a page the page itself slightly scrolls down by itself.It's very subtle and it doesn't happen often so good chance people won't even notice.(My OCD kicking in and noticed it)
Wondering if a recent update might be causing it since I don't think I've noticed this behaviour before.
Help: I'm using Chrome on my HP computer (Windows 11), and had many tabs opened. Chrome offered me to turn on Sync, which I can't recall ever doing. After turning Sync on, all my tabs closed, and suddenly a version of my Bookmarks Bar from 2012 (!) replaced the existing bookmarks bar. Any help in restoring my vanished tabs and Bookmarks Bar would be much appreciated🤞🏻
Hi please advise…
Hello,
Today I tried to use the mrchromebox guide to install custom firmware on my chromebook (my chromebook is compatible with UEFI full rom). My model chromebook requires you to remove the battery in order to disable hardware Write Protection. So I opened my chromebook and unplugged the battery, and plugged my computer into power with the USB-C cable and my computer still hasn't turned on. Does anyone know how to fix this?
EDIT: I just found out that it's not the battery because I've tried with other batteries and chargers and it still won't show any sign of life.
I guess the body text didn't go through for some reason so I'll repost this, I've moved from opera gx to chrome and I really want to either change what the Google logo is or remove it completely also change the search bars color the method of dark mode works but it fucks up everything else so I don't know what to do also is it possible to remove the add shortcut button
So I have google translate turned on in chrome (for windows)
I would like it to translate r / China_irl but it does not
putting the page into google translate directly only allows me to scroll so far.
Likewise I find it doesn't translate the chinese on youtube pages
Context: Microsoft may finally fix the "white flash" issue in Chrome and Edge
.
This white flash appears when opening the browser or a new window, now it has been replaced by a window with the acrylic effect, which is much less annoying than the white flash:

"Fix" for the white flash issue.

"Fix" for the white flash issue (slow mo)

"Fix" for the white flash issue when opening the browser.

IIRC there is a chrome flag or page for it. where it show if some tab is using too much ram or GPU
When I try to download a bigger file (that takes 1hr+ to download) it'll finish the download then it will say "Something went wrong" and then a resume button, which will just start the download over. I've pressed the resume button 2-3 times and every time it does that. Can someone please help?
Hi all, quick question. Apparently about a month ago, I synced my personal google account to my work phone. In that time, I've googled personal stuff that I'd prefer work doesn't know about, regarding mental health and the occasional nsfw stuff. Basically stuff I'd be embarrassed about if word were to spread.
My question is this: assuming the stuff I googled was on my personal phone, or my PC on my home network, what information does my work have access to if they aren't actively snooping? Upon syncing, does a log of all my history get uploaded to their server/web admin for them to reference later? Or do they have to actually manually enter my account to snoop?
Thanks in advance
Live Captions is useful but the black background is intrusive, I want to make it more transparent or just have an outline on the text.
I'm on macOS and tried to customize it in the System Settings, but it's not making a change and actually updating the listed style. It seems like Chrome is doing something to override it.
I'm referring to this feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLjc2fk8nD8
Does anyone know?
when i switch between my chrome tabs (not alt-tab but clicking at the top to switch between different chrome tabs) some parts of the website of the old chrome tab stays on the new chrome tab blocking parts of the the website of the new chrome tab. It will stay for a good 20 secs and then its gone. Why is this happening?
Please help!
I updated the keyboard shortcut Command+Shift+V for other apps on my MacBook, and now that shortcut no longer works on Google Docs on Chrome.
How do I fix this? I’ve added a photo of my current settings for reference.

Since they removed the flags option of manually disabling this I used the --disable-features=InsecureDownloadWarnings shortcut target option but this doesnt really seem to be working anymore either.
Any other solution? Or is it time to pack it up and just go to Brave? (EDIT: nope brave isnt it either) Is Google this insistent on making me let them scan everything i download? Havent had or even heard of someone having an internet virus since like 2004 limewire days lmfao.
I have an issue where suddenly my chrome is now listed as being managed by my organization. Which is weird as this is a personal computer and it wasn't like this yesterday. Is there any solution anyone can provide?
hey all running Win11,
Noticed today that Google Maps is having issues even in Chrome by not showing data correctly any idea?
