Ebized Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Anyone have experience of how to correct this please on a PC? Becoming a real pain. Deleted all he temp files, browsing history and caches after a Google search but still no better and with the added hassle of resigning into everything. Whether it is co-incidence or not but issue seems worse when I go to view our gmail a/cs. Using IE atm but when I am on the forum it has never worked well for me.
Piranha Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 When this happened to me I uninstalled chrome then re installed and it did the job. Bit extreme I know 😀 Is it happening on all sites you browse or just a selected few?
Flex Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I think you need to upgrade from windows XP, sorry Colin, couldnt resist.
Ebized Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Thanks - seems to happen with any open tabs, but most frustrating aspect is when trying to check our gmail a/cs. Only way of clearing,as nothing will respond when the message flags up about being unresponsive is to restart the PC. Whether it is connected or not, simply typing posts is now painful - as though I am missing keystrokes Yeah, have already decided to move fully to Apple stuff, but not immediately so hoping there is a quick fix for the interim.
Paddy78 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Are you running a proxy or firewall? Using Chrome is a nightmare behind our work's proxy, but IE is fine for some reason... I'd uninstall Chrome, restart then reinstall. I know it's obvious, but there may be a setting or something which will be reset with a fresh install. 2
Ebized Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Closed all programs/windows (several times and restarted PC) all I'm getting when I go to uninstall is " Please close all Google Chrome windows and try again"!!
Paddy78 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_programs/unable-to-uninstall-google-chrome-close-all/21b1d42d-0eba-49af-a809-016e9331056c?auth=1 Sounds like Google Chrome Helper or another Chrome process is still active. Kill all these then try to uninstall.
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Colin, I could have a quick look remotely for you if you want, PM me teamviewer ID & pass.
Ebized Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Thanks Paddy - your advice sorted it and uninstalled now......will take a break now and may try a reinstall if I can't get on(again) with IE.
Paddy78 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Glad you got it sorted. There's always Firefox or Opera if you get sick of IE?
Ebized Posted September 18, 2015 Author Posted September 18, 2015 Thanks Adrian for the offer but got a temp fix for now using IE so I'll lock this thread....at least for now
