Chrome new tab shortcuts gone
Frustrating!
Don't worry, I'm here to help you recover your Chrome new tab shortcuts. Here are a few possible reasons why they might have disappeared:
- Extension issue: A misbehaving extension might be causing the issue. Try disabling all extensions and then re-enabling them one by one to identify the culprit.
- Chrome settings: Check your Chrome settings to ensure that the new tab page is set to display the default page. To do this:
- Click the three vertical dots in the top right corner of the Chrome window.
- Click on "Settings."
- Scroll down to the "On startup" section.
- Ensure that "Open a specific page or set of pages" is selected and that the "New tab page" is set as the default page.
- Cache and cookies: Clearing your browser cache and cookies might resolve the issue. To do this:
- Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete (Windows/Linux) or Command + Shift + Delete (Mac) to open the Chrome settings.
- Select "Clear browsing data" and choose the options you want to clear (e.g., "Cookies and other site data," "Cached images and files").
- Click "Clear data."
- Reset Chrome settings: If the above steps don't work, you can try resetting Chrome settings to their default values. To do this:
- Click the three vertical dots in the top right corner of the Chrome window.
- Click on "Settings."
- Scroll down to the "Advanced" section.
- Click on "Reset and clean up Google Chrome."
- Confirm that you want to reset Chrome settings.
- Reinstall Chrome: If none of the above steps work, you can try reinstalling Chrome. This will remove all extensions, settings, and data, so be sure to back up any important data before doing so.
