I did a full re-install of windows 8.1 (formatted) and now magnet links that would previously open utorrent don't do anything anymore. I did some googling and found a reg key to edit but I didn't have the string at all. I created it but no luck - magnet links still not working. They work fine in Firefox, oddly enough. edit - Fixed it by re-installing utorrent using the default file path (was changing it to my storage drive previously). Worked fine after doing so - weird. supersteve fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Jun 14, 2014 |

What's a good RSS feed extension? I used to use RSS Live Links, but apparently that's been removed from the store. I looked at the google one, but whenever I try to add a feed, it just takes me to some random site. I also looked at this one, but it won't even present entries in order. Any suggestions? Fake edit: I'd search the thread, but search seems to be broken right now.

I've been getting a weird image search bug in Chrome lately. When I'm signed into my Google account I can't middle click on image search results to open them in a new tab. It just shows the grey background. This doesn't happen if I'm not signed in. I'm a teacher and use image search several times a day, every day for PowerPoint presentations so this is a pretty major bug. I could only find one thread about in the Chrome support forum and nobody there seemed to know what was up. Anybody else experiencing this?

Chrome is doing this weird thing where I can't move tabs around. They can be dragged into a new window but they'll just bounce back if you move it to another space within the same window. What gives?

Also using the omnibar to search just brings me to blank, contentless google search page now which is also vexing. Any ideas? I've checked out /flags and as I've said, my own searching is bringing up nothing useful. EDIT: Okay everything suddenly worked itself out. This browser never ceases to befuddle me. meteor9 fucked around with this message at 06:12 on Jun 16, 2014 |

Not on a domain, just a normal home desktop running Win7 Pro. Turns out the extension I was trying to fix has been added to the chrome store since the last time I installed it. Didn't even need to do that stuff, but I'm glad it worked. I've seen another fix that involves making some changes then re-installing your extensions but this one seems easier.

For the past couple days, I've been trying to find a way to get a bookmarks button that works like the way I remember Firefox doing it (although I haven't used that in a couple years): you click it, and it shows a menu of all your bookmarks. I asked in the Small/Stupid Questions thread and got a suggestion to throw all my bookmarks into one folder, then show the bookmarks bar. This didn't really achieve what I wanted, since it would make me have the bookmarks toolbar present all the time just to show that folder and the Apps button. I found a couple that look like they'd do what I want, but they need permissions that seem suspicious, like "access your data on all websites" and "access your tabs and browsing activity". It's a loving bookmarks extension, you don't need that poo poo! So any other suggestions, please?

I just ran into a weird font issue. They just look... strange, I can't put my finger on it. Its really evident on the SA forums list, the underlines seem to far up. Anyone have this issue? It feels like the default font changed or something.

Anyone have this issue? It feels like the default font changed or something. At least in the dev channel, DirectWrite is now enabled by default in Windows. You may have to dig into chrome://flags to disable it, and there's no guarantee you'll still be able to in the future. Your screenshot's in .jpg format (PNG would have been better) so I can't tell what the default LCD text antialiasing setting is (grayscale or subpixel).

Thank you so much for this. I just wish Youtube Center would allow you to block videos from people you don't like option. Anyone know of a good extension for that? For example, block pewdepie (or whatever his name is) from any of his videos even showing up on the page?

Pivit posted:You can enable third party addons by configuring chrome via group policy. If it's a machine you control to that degree its also worth considering switching to the Dev/Canary channels which don't have the restriction in the first place instead of shoehorning Chrome stable/beta & dealing with the maintenance overhead (assuming you're cool with the small potential instability cost you get in exchange).

Is there a good way to troubleshoot 'Page Unresponsive Errors'? I'm getting a bunch lately, I have no idea where to start looking I've only just moved over from Firefox recently. Are there logs or someway to see if a plugin is causing the issue?

Anyone have this issue? It feels like the default font changed or something. Glad it wasn't just me. Ever since the version before the current, dev has been completely hosed for me. I've more or less given up on it since nobody on either of the bugs filed on it is in any hurry to do anything other than kick it into someone else's queue. Does anyone know what kind of a hack job I'm gonna have to do in order to force my dev version profile into a stable version install? I know it doesn't wanna let you move a profile to an older version, but, while dev has been more or less fine until now, in the state mine is in it's completely unusable, and I'm getting off that train.

Chrome has just been really buggy for me lately. Tabs turning white if they're inactive and then will more likely crash than recover, weird font issue in the UCP on SA (which I'm willing to live with, but that first issue is awful), etc. Is there something easier than a full uninstall/reinstall that would be helpful to fixing this stuff?

I've noticed a strange problem lately with some videos on Chrome. They appear to be playing sound, but I can't hear anything through my speakers. That is, if I open the mixer, the meters for the speakers and for Chrome are moving, and going at least halfway up at the peaks, but I can't hear any sound. The same videos (e.g. Instagram) work fine on Internet Explorer. Windows 8.1 Pro, Chrome 35.0.1916.153 m

As I posted above, I've been having trouble lately with audio not playing on some websites (but not always all audio on a given site - the correct answer dings play on duolingo, but not the synthesized speech). After some back and forth on the support groups, including dumping my profile and creating a new Windows account, I submitted a bug report. That might be the only thing you can do at this point.

I can't find any different settings that make them not work on just this one machine. It's kind of a bugger!

This is more of a Chrome OS question, and it's a shot in the dark too. Is there an alternative for printing that doesn't involve Google Cloud Print? For example, is there an off-the-shelf print server that has a web interface I can submit a PDF to for printing? Or more ideally, a Chrome extension to provide IPP support? I can get past most of the privacy issues within Chrome OS, but the one that stands out is everything that's printed through Google Cloud Print gets lobbed somewhere. Also won't work offline.
