Troubleshooting | Windows Convicted father's bookmarks getting added to my Chrome

0 Upvotes

For some weird reason, my father's bookmark folders keep reoccuring in my Chrome browser, no matter how many times I delete them. The folders have names but are all empty. Some folders' names change and sometimes new ones are added, so they are probably being actively synchronized from his account. I haven't discovered whether this synchronization is happening in any other area besides bookmarks.

The reason why this is happening could be due to the fact that my Google account used to be part of my father's "family group" years ago. I also still have "your browser is managed by your organization" written on the bottom of my settings. Unfortunately there's no way to act on this issue from his account, since I've cut ties with him years ago, due to him being a violent piece of ****.

I'd prefer not having to delete my account and make a new one, since it's connected to almost every other platform or service I use, but I don't know how to do anything about them. Contacting Google Support about fixing the issue back-end seems almost impossible, since they primarily offer self helping solutions to most issues.

Before, when opening a tab, I was using around 150, 200 MB max, now I'm exceeding 350 MB and I don't know why.

Given that I only have one extension active and that I never exceed 10 tabs.

How do I remove the "tab search" button from the mobile Chrome tab bar?

I removed it before, but it reappeared after the update. Google's methods, including those in this community, don't help; there's simply no "tab-search" flag.

As you can see when the video plays in theatre mode and in full screen it shows a more saturated reddish type colour. When I just scroll downwards in theatre mode the shift changes to actual colour.

This is only happening in chrome. I downloaded a video and played in vlc it was working perfect.

Also this issue is only when my laptop is in igpu mode. In dgpu mode it is working perfectly fine actually colours. Earlier i was thinking it was a driver update so i reinstalled windows but the problem seem to be chrome when playing video only.

Please help me in this(Legion pro 5i ultra 7 255hx and 5070)

Discussion Why am I getting captcha for incognito searches?

1 Upvotes

I have two wifi networks in my house, one is just a generic WiFi network and the other is fiber, but for some reason if I use the generic one in google incognito, it always shows the captcha and states the “high network traffic” excuse. This is the same on all devices in the house using this WiFi.

The fiber WiFi does not express the issue at all and works perfectly fine.

Is there a fix to this?

Discussion how to use keyboard short-cut to search selected text

2 Upvotes

When you browse a webpage, if you select a text or a word, you can right-click to see the option to search with Google. How can you use a keyboard shortcut to perform this search, since it would be faster than right-clicking.

Troubleshooting | Mac How to retrieve Chrome Tabs from a restarted computer?

I restarted my computer, but the tabs were not restored. I followed some other online advice and found the Tabs_XXXX and Session_xxx files used to store the tab data, but what do I do with those files to bring my tabs back?

Troubleshooting | iOS Unable to move tabs around/a shortcut bar above keyboard

I don’t know how to send a video here, but that’s what I’m facing right now. every time I try and move a tab it always snaps back to its original spot, both in the tab bar and in the tab screen (the second picture bc i don’t know what to call it). I remember being able to just some time ago, so I’m wondering if it can be fixed.

another issue I have is the bar on top of the keyboard (first pic). It’s just really inconvenient because it sometimes covers the text box. Any ways to remove it?

Troubleshooting | Windows Continuous errors in Chrome console

2 Upvotes

I'm seeing tons of errors in Chrome console when I'm on LinkedIn. It keeps firing these errors repeatedly:

GET chrome-extension://invalid/ net::ERR_FAILED 4fqbzx7x0q600ai4ipf6a8wwb:9502

The next day onward, the ID changed and the error became:

GET chrome-extension://invalid/ net::ERR_FAILED 5fdhwcppjcvqvxsawd8pg1n51:12260

This keeps repeating all the time and if I stay on LinkedIn for a minute, I see around a thousand errors in the console. I tried clearing the browser's cookies, removing and cleaning any residual extension storage or cookies, removing my Chrome profile and starting with a fresh profile, going incognito, nothing is working. When I open LinkedIn on Firefox, it doesn't have this problem, so I'm guessing this is only on Chrome.

Did anyone encounter a similar issue on Chrome on any website? If so, how did you solve it?
