My chrome browser started acting up yesterday. Once I turn on my laptop from a shutdown (not from sleep), chrome works fine for a few minutes, sometimes 5 and sometimes 10. Then it lags a LOT. websites load very slow, even typing lags. Even the setting panel or bookmarks panel lags with approx 0.3 sec delay after every 0.3 seconds. It basically turns into a pulse. Lag, work, lag, work.

The issue does not appear on Edge.

I have tried turning off the hardware acceleration option and it hasn't worked.

My laptop is 2014 Dell XPS 15. Core i7, 16gb ram, 512 ssd.

Please help. I tried importing my passwords to Edge but it didn't work but even if it had, I still want chrome to work lag free.

If you installed any extensions in chrome. delete them all and then delete chrome and fresh reinstall.

KHI
Had you not mentioned ssd I would have said the paging file was causing this but it seems you will need to do a clean reinstall of chrome from the looks of it. Do backup bookmarks. Try running CPUZ before launching chrome see what's happening to the processor during this time when the lag occurs.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
