Your once snappy Chrome browser is dragging, and you don’t know why. Do you blame Google, and switch to another browser to feel that new-browser smell once again? Not so fast! A browser reset is much less of a hassle, and will fix all kinds of issues— without deleting all your bookmarks and other data.
When you reset Chrome, the following things happen:
* Your in-browser search engine is reset to the default, Google.com.
*Your homepage and default startup tabs are reset.
*You new tab page settings are reset.
*Pinned tabs are erased.
*Content settings (like which sites you’ve given access to your webcam or allowed popups from) are erased.
* All cookies and site data are erased.
* All extensions and themes, save for the default ones, are disabled (but not deleted).
How to Reset Chrome
If that sounds like a detox session you’d like to sign up for, resetting Chrome is easy. Just click on the menu button in the upper right corner and select “Settings”
At the bottom of the Settings page, click on “Show advanced settings”.
Scroll way down through the now greatly expanded settings options until you reach the bottom. There, click on “Reset settings”.
Finally, you’ll be prompted to confirm the reset.
After the reset, Chrome will be out-of-the-box fast again thanks to all that purged dead weight.
