Let the thought police have some fun too. It's good when they once in a while have the feeling that they are genuinely helping their customers and see some immediate results. It will motivate them when they have to do their actual work of policing political correctness, finding those who have not yet seen the light and teaching them what to say (and thereby what to think).

I am noticing a lot of issues with Chrome lately. Mostly browser freezing.
Could it be Windows actively crashing Chrome?!
|
|
|
|
|
That would suck and not out of the realm of possibility.
I don't know who's running things now at Mickysoft but it seems like Dr. Evil.

a lot of that is chrome itself.
it's not the browser it once was.

It has never been what it once was.
Let's get Netscape back!
And replace Google with Altavista while we're at it!

Hmmm, just started using Chrome again for CodeProject as Edge did not work properly anymore. Strange thing is that at work Edge still works like it should. I found out that most problems I have at home are gone when I start Edge as administrator ...

Maybe the last Chrome updates sucks? I think Chrome sucks from day 1 anyway.

My chrome instances were not running YouTube videos over the weekend which seems to have been fixed.

I noticed Chrome went through an update, since a few days it looks different. (for instance, the tabs on top are noticeably different)
|
|
|

I fixed the problem with a system restart!

Twice in the last couple months Chrome started getting very sluggish for me. Both times clearing the history / cache fixed it right up.

If you remember/had read my last post regarding a CMOS error at the start up of a computer...
I've been at the customer's and...
Battery was mounted upside down!
Mistery solved!
Thank you all for your answers.

Bonus points if you now can tell me what CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductors) got to do with all that.
By the way: In CMOS chips lurks something called a parasitic Thyristor[^] that can cause a lot of trouble, especially when the polarity of the supply voltage is reversed and there is no diode to protect the chip.

The memory is a RAM that loses your BIOS settings once power is cut. That's why it is kept alive with the battery as long as the computer is turned off. CMOS draw about 1000 times less power from the battery than memories that are built with other types of transistors and the battery lasts far longer.

My BIOS settings are in perfect state... well, not perfect but almost...

Only as long as the battery is good and installed with the right polarity.
