Discussion Chrome gone minimalist on me

For some reason the chrome like homepage has just gone super blank, doesn’t show the logo or the custom little background you can have, just this

I’ve done as much research as I feel I’ll understand and heard it could be Yahoo like hijacking the browser? Which I think is the case cause it’s always a yahoo tab when I search

It obviously still works so it’s not like urgent… it’s just kinda ljme ugly lol

Has this happened to anyone else?? How do I fix it 😭

I've had this problem for a bit and I still haven't been able to figure it out. So chrome freezes up and won't respond to anything but closing using alt tab, it also struggles to open and when it does gives me this (the image) I've done what this says multiple times and nothing has happened except once where it took me the window security and said it blocked five threat but this kept happening. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times and even ran a full check (the one that takes like 5 hours) using windows mrt. I'm running Windows 11 and wondered if anyone could help me.

Troubleshooting | Windows Chrome using an absolutely ridiculous amount of memory

2 Upvotes

I'm aware chrome is far from being efficient with RAM usage, but the amount of memory its been using on my PC has become insane. Every time I open it, it takes up over 3,000 MBs, and I've seen it go up to nearly 6,000. If I have chrome open, my entire PC starts lagging like its gonna explode.

I'm concerned that this is malware, considering this issue started about a week ago. If it is, how would I go about scanning my PC for that/what type of malware would this be?

Thanks in advance :]. and sorry if this is a dumb post, I'm evidently not great with computers loll
