r/chrome

Over the past week I've noticed when I look up a sporting event it sets me to GMT+1 time zone, and opening google maps puts me in Niger. This happens when I use Chrome on my desktop and my iPhone, but google on FireFox is the correct time zone and IP address. I've checked my location setting, time zone settings, and devices linked to my google account and they are all set to my correct location/time zone and only my devices are listed. I can't find anything online about fixing this that I haven't already checked and is correct. Is anyone else experiencing this or know something else that could cause it? Also I don't use a VPN so that is not applicable.

hey whats up

ive been encountering a really weird bug after this latest chrome update. it crashes almost immediately when i open it but works perfectly fine in incognito mode. it's super annoying and i've already sent 1000 reports to apple. any advice?

Tonight when I try to download files on Chrome, the finder window that pops up to select where I'd like to save is unresponsive. I can't click the drop down, can't click anything in the side bar, can't even hit cancel (although command-period still executes the cancel function!) I'm gettin verklempt. Can anybody help me plzzzzz :D ?

PS, finder works as normal, and with safari I was able to download files. but god, don't tell me I gotta be a safari guy!

Also feel free to recommend a better browser. F google anyhow.

Hey guys, so recently, I'd say starting around a month ago, my chrome has been lagging terribly when watching youtube videos, like very annoyingly so. This makes no sense to me as I have a very strong computer and my internet is outstanding.

I have seen some people saying it is because of adblock, but I dont have adblock on my chrome. I do have Ublock origin on Firefox, but i toggled that off and the issue persisted. Besides, I dont think having it on FF would make a difference, would it?

Any advice? Im hoping its not malware because I really dont wanna have to wipe my computer and start all over :(

It lags even on the simplest of things like agar.io or spinning 7tv crates lol.

Please help! Thanks!

Anyone else's Google Chrome messing up today? My Facebook feed keeps glitching & my pinned post keep disappearing.

I am on a desktop Mac (2021) running Tahoe 26.3.1 (a). I believe Chrome updated a couple of days ago.

hi, is it just me?

I'm unable to Shift-drag a straight line in Chrome PDF Viewer when using the annotate pen tool.

does anyone know how to change it back to where the ai overview and other stuff is on the top and not these ads

I want to use an icon on my Android homescreen to quickly open a page.

When I save the link of the exact page i want within chrome as "add to homescreen" and then test the shortcut afterwards it doesn't work.

For example my page is http://asd.xyz/thisexactpage/ it will only save or open http:/asd.xyz/.

What is this shit?

Is there a way to manipulate the stored link afterwards? Like I can edit shortcuts on windows for example?

I dont know why and whats causing it, but anything google related (drive, docs, etc.) keep refreshing on their own non stop, and i just cant find a solution to it. whats going on?

Almost everyday. I am using m4. Is this a known bug with the new macos or chrome?

I want more shortcuts but I don't like the look of the "new tab" for Speed Dial and Humble New Tab, is there a way to get more shortcuts and keep the same new tab look?
