I use the chrome inspector a lot when I develop. This morning when I opened it up, I saw this:
Look up at the tab headers in the inspector window, it's being weirdly cut off.
Here's one with the console tab open, the text in the console tab is experiencing the same issue as the headers.
I've tried completely closing and reopening chrome. No luck, same issue. I tried using the "Restore defaults and reload" command in inspector setting, closing and reopening chrome. No luck, same issue.
This is driving me crazy, I can't an issue similar to this anywhere. I use the inspector so much while developing, so I really need to find a solution.
I really appreciate anyone's time and help with this issue.
So, I don't know what caused this issue, but my solution was to uninstall and then reinstall Chrome.
I recommend completely uninstalling Chrome, which includes:
Moving the app from applications folder into trash
Moving all files under ~/Library/Google/ into trash*
Moving all files under ~/Library/Application Support/Google/ into trash*
Emptying you trash folder, so that all the files are truly deleted.
*This solution is for Mac systems, file paths are different for Windows.
After the full uninstall, you can reinstall Chrome as normal (download it from another browser).

I am having trouble getting Chrome to open html files from MacOS Finder. This includes double-clicking or right clicking and selecting open. These actions result in opening or making Chrome the active application, but not opening the html file. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? It didn't start after an update or any detectible change in how I work. It seems totally random.
Here's what I've tried:
opening multiple html files created in different applications (sublime, dreamweaver, atom, etc.)
deleting Chrome preferences
resetting all Chrome settings
running all possible updates
restarting Chrome and computer
Here's what does work:
opening files from within Chrome via File>Open File
opening a new tab or window in Chrome and dragging an html file into it
opening html files in Firefox and Safari by all available methods without encountering the issue I'm experiencing with Chrome.
Thank you!
Recreating the Sublime Text preference file resolved the issue. Admittedly I feel kinda dumb for not doing this in my first round of troubleshooting, but at least I did it now! Hopefully this at least helps some other people out there with the same issue.
When I start my browser Chrome and Firefox, the website named "http://www.bilexlahntu.ru" opens automatically. Also there are no extensions installed on it. How to solve this problem? Also sometimes Chrome shows a pop-up to download something.
Please help me.
Looks like your browser contains adware. Use some addware remover. For automatically opening sites, have checked chrome>>settings>>on start up and remove or change the start up pages. I have used addblock extension for chrome.. link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/adblock/gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom
i find the solution, after uninstalling all the application that are from unknown publisher, i don't face this problem and all my browser works well as earlier.
Sinсe Google Chrome was updated to 50.x version, it become impossible to work with DevTools. This issue reproduced mostly in "Network" tab. Every time when you click on "request" it takes about 30-40 sec. after that chrome can crash. Tried to delete all extensions, clear cache, and reinstall, but didn't help. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
I'm running Chrome 50.0.2661.87 m
UPD: The problem may be occurs because of long headers. Try to close response and request headers.
I've been having similar issues for debugging in Chrome versions 50+ on Mac OS X 10.11.3. The only solution I've found so far is to keep the dev tools docked to the right and it seems to be as performant as before. Not the optimal solution, but it works in my case.
Finally, a solution has been found which helped me after such a long time and after so many failed attempts to fix it: Solution on Google Chrome Forums
Go to chrome://flags/#force-color-profile
Change it to sRGB
Since Google does not allow direct links to chrome:// you'll have to insert the colon by yourself, or enter the whole link manually into your toolbar.
My situation was similar, after struggling a while with extreme slow developer tools response I found out the problem was caused by a Chrome extension I had installed for knockoutJs.
So for people experiencing these issues, as part of the initial troubleshooting, try disabling chrome extensions.
I'm using the Version 61.0.3163.79 and I have the same issue that this post talks about.
With some searches I found out that the problem was in the user that I was using. What I tried was to enter int google chrome as guest and the devtools became faster again.
So what I did was:
Check out if debugging using the guest user is faster as it should be.
Logout from the account.
Clean all cache associated to google chrome.
Restart the PC (but i think closing the browser is enough)
Login again in your account.
I hope this could help other people with same problem.
[EDIT:]
I found out that after some time (weeks) the google chrome dev tools will get slower again. So I tried the following solution and it worked:
Open the dev tools
Go to the Sources tab.
Cleaned all watched variables, breakpoints, DOM breakpoint and Event Listeners breakpoint.
[SECOND EDIT:]
After some weeks, the issue came again. What I did was installing the google canary Version 64.0.3249.2 canary (64-bit) and my problems vanished.
For who's that doesn't know what is canary, please check this link.
Google is aware of the problem - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=624097
The problem seems to have vanished in v.53 - they are currently trying to figure out what fixed it. If possible, the fix will be merged back to v.52. But at least they are working on it.
In case others arrive here facing the same issue I had, try changing the Dev tools tab you're looking at to Elements.
I had the "Sources" tab open and Chrome was trying to load enormous assets for that tab, which created a multisecond delay between the console.log() events I created and the display of those logged messages.
Make devtools snappy again by deactivating all breakpoints:
Go to the Sources tab, show the debugger (may be hidden) and hit Deactivate breakpoints.
(Chrome v62.0 on Windows 10)
I've had the same time issue on 54.0.2840.99 m version of Google Chrome.
But switching to Chrome Canary worked !
Reduce size of resource being overridden
Only overriding files with less lines of code worked well for me. I landed here because I was overriding a file which had 35,000 + lines of Javascript.
Further, if your resource is a new one - i.e. it is not included in a script tag or link tag, you can override main html document and add the tag : <script src="/my-new-script.js"></script>. Add the file to your domain-root within the Overrides folder on Chrome:
overriding HTML
then overriding CUSTOM SCRIPT:
Good Luck...
I also face same issue.
I tried unchecked toggle screencast. Now it is working fine.
In my case, I had Local Overrides setup (https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2018/01/devtools#overrides) in Downloads folder which had a lot of files in it and that slowed down devtools.
Setting up overrides in its own seprate directory fixed the slowness.
I sped up Chrome again by doing the following:
Open DevTools -> select Elements tab ->
select nested Computed tab -> under Filter, make sure that Show all is unselected.
select nested Event Listeners tab -> make sure that Ancestors and Framework listeners are unselected.
For me, running Chrome Version 81.0.4044.138 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Ubuntu 18, the problem seems to be the mobile view. When I disable mobile view inspecting becomes really fast again. I think it is caused by touch emulation and other mobile stuff.
To have something similar to a mobile view I move the DevTools dock to the side and resize it until I get the width I need. It is not perfect, but it is useful most of the time.
Besides Chrome, Firefox is much faster when inspecting sites overall, though I didn't use FF because I'm used to specific things on Chrome. Moreover, most of the sites I work with do not trigger these issues on Chrome, in fact, it happens with only one site.
PD: the site that triggers the issue on Chrome Dev Tools has lots of CSS variables. Not sure if that is related.
UPDATE 1 WEEK ago
I was able to use Chrome without issues even in the mobile view by disabling the option "Show media queries"
Go to the network tool and change it without any restrictions. Sometimes this happens if you change mobile settings. Google chrome changes this setting to test mobile device on low internet connection and leaves it that way.
I'm having an issue with getting Chrome's Developer Tools to work on my machine.
I've tried both Chrome Version 37.0.2026.0 canary and Version 35.0.1916.114 m and both have slightly different problems - I'm using Windows 8.1.
In the standard installation of Chrome, the Developer Tools options are greyed out. I've searched this everywhere and there is a Google post saying to enable it in your registry settings. When I go into my registry, there is nothing relating to Google in the path they've specified - [http://www.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#DeveloperToolsDisabled][1]
In the Canary version of Chrome, the Developer Tools options appear and are not greyed out or anything, but absolutely nothing appears when I click it (no window, no error, nothing).
Anyone have any ideas? I've tried restarting the machine, clearing my cache, reinstalling Chrome but no solution..
I'll keep looking for a solution and post it if I find anything!
Thanks in advanced.
Ohhhh! I went through my Chrome settings again and noticed that Javascript was being "enforced by my administrator"
I figured out what it was (so stupid): We use Google Apps where I work and it's been disabled in the Admin Console. You definitely pointed me in the right direction though!
So i have been running into this problem with a lot of Wordpress sites lately, usually occurring when i am logged in as Admin, so i couldn't post here because no one would be able to view the problem. However, i just found a site that it happens on that doesn't require admin creds.
http://www.otisports.com/
When i visit this site in Chrome (Version 34.0.1847.137 m), it just displays a blank page. No errors, just the (what now seems standard) event.returnValue is deprecated. Please use the standard event.preventDefault() instead. warning. I have seen that warning signify problems on the site, but they are usually minor, not to the extent that the above URL displays. However, if i open an Incognito window and visit the site everything works perfectly and there is no warning. Does the Incognito window deal with webpages in a way that is so entirely different that it would cause something like this to happen?
I have been racking my brain trying to figure this out. Can anyone reproduce this? is it a bug in chrome?
EDIT: I just tried to open a bounty on this question and the EXACT same thing happened. In Regular Chrome, nothing happened when i clicked the start a bounty link and i saw various errors Undefined is not a function however in incognito everything worked perfectly. what gives?!
EDIT: Yes, i have cleared the cache, history, cookies, everything, and i still get the same errors. I cant even post a comment on this question because of errors...
I came across the same issue when trying to open evernote.com. It loaded successfully while using incognito mode in chrome. Let me share how I fixed this even though the original post is way too old. But maybe someone can find it useful.
I'm using chrome (Version 73.0.3683.103 (Official Build) (64-bit)) running on Linux Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS.
I tried disabling all extensions and clearing browser data/cache but nothing worked. PS: Disabling adblock previously worked for me. Yes, I stumbled over the same issue before and whitelisting evernote in adblock solved the issue. But it didn't now.
The following is what worked for me:
Open developers tools (CTRL + SHIFT + J).
Navigate to Applications tab.
Choose Clear storage from the side menu
Hit Clear site data button.
After reading the comments I dug into chrome and saw there was a bunch of extensions still sitting around that were definitely malware and I thought I had previously deleted. Instead of picking through them one-by-one, I just deleted everything, re-installed Chrome, and now everything works great!
I had the same issue. My application was working in Incognito mode and in Firefox but not in Regular Chrome. I even disabled all the extensions but no luck. I eventually cleared the Cached images and files because on developer console I found out that the regular chrome was still picking up the old file due to caching. So as soon as I cleared it, my app showed up like a rocket :)
Try removing any non required extension .
Specifically AdBlock
I resolved the problem post that.
Since on Incognito , extensions are disabled, hence page run as expected.
I resolved this unforeseen issue using following steps.
CTRL + SHIFT + DEL > Clear Browsing Data.
Cookies and other site data
Cached images and files
This is for Chrome Browser.
Open Console (Ctl+Shift+I) first.
Then under the application tab, you will find some options on the left, find out the application there, you will find it at the top.
There you will find Service Workers.
Under Service Workers, there will be three checkboxes. Select Update on reload checkbox and reload again.
I had the same issue after installing React-Sight Extention.
The Page hanged but not in the incognito mode.
Try deleting any recently added or junk extension.
Delete your cache.
That worked for me
I had a similar issue in chrome, in my case the problem was that I could log in to my university library's website only in incognito mode. After some digging, I figured out that Google Translate extension was set to automatically translate any page. When I turned that off and instead selected never translate that specific page, it started working in the usual mode as well.
This is rather an old issue but still happens. None of the solutions recommended here and there did not solve the issue in my case.
I somehow noticed this is related with a -some kind of- corruption on the user profile.
This is how I solved it:
Close all Chrome browsers.
Open a Google page on Chrome.
Sign-out from Google (rigt click your profile picture on a Google page, not on the Chrome itself), and sign-in.
If this doesn't work:
Close all Chrome browsers.
Right click Chrome icon and select Google Chrome.
Delete your Google profile on the "select your profile" page.
Close Chrome.
Open Chrome, sign-in.
uBlock Origin was the culprit in my case. Once I allowed the site in uBlock Origin, pages loaded correctly in normal Chrome.
