So I'm having this issue where there's a tab which I want to be running permanently even if the tab isn't focused or minimized.
I've found that in chrome://discards/ I can see which tabs are active but what I want is a way to set the lifecycle state to be always active no matter what.
I've tried disabling the Automatic tab discarding flag and the throttling flag but neither of those worked for me.
Not a complete answer I'm afraid, but figured I'd share this on the off chance it's helpful after finding it in my own search. (and this question is still relevant to someone out there and finds this again like me)
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2018/07/page-lifecycle-api#state-passive
this ^^^
seems to be something to look into (chrome basically assigns pages a "state" for whether the page should be active/frozen/etc based on current visibility and other events).
if you are the page's dev, and you want to passively force such to happen or NOT happen, this library might be what you need/want, but I have not tested this and it could just be for reading the current state rather then changing it (I don't know).

So yeah, not a full answer since you as a user, don't seem to have the option to change it, which is weird.

I don't know what is happening with my PC and my Google Chrome browser. It is opening every webpage inside a iframe. I dont know why. I have tried resetting all the chrome settings and I even have tried deleting all the data ( deleted all folders related to chrome ) and re installing chrome over 10 times and still the same problem. It is really giving me pain.
You can clearly see that I am on the startup page of chrome and its showing me view frame source and reload frame. I searched it on google found 0 solutions or even 0 topics about this kind of issues. So I am really begging for a solution here..
There is no actual frame, it's just an UI issue. There is a Chrome bug report about it here: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1085040
Let's hope it will be resolved in an upcoming update.

Apparently after the last Chrome update(ver 78.0.39) there is a new feature(tab tooltip, it's quite distracting):
How can I disable this?
The link provided in comments work. Pasting it here for direct solution.
Visit Chrome://flags page
Search for Tab hover, in the highlighted search results, for Tab Hover cards
Select “Disabled ” and restart the Chrome browser.
Do note the flags are temporary, may work for a couple of versions, after that they’ll disappear, this is a temporary solution only, we suggest you to get used to the hover cards feature.

I've been looking this days to the code (using google chrome and its Inspect element feature) of several pages in order to see what they are doing (javascript, css, html, etc...) and I've seen something strange when searching for gmail at www.google.es (It's the same with www.google.com)
Just go to the link or search it yourselves and you'll see:
What is that line doing there? I already tried cleaning my monitor but it's not that ;)
I tried to look at the code in order to see if I could understand what is going on but I can't see anything strange:
Any ideas?
It is actually a single unicode character ฏ๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎๎ which has an unicode entities of \u0e0f\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e\u0e4e
Basically the diacritical mark (commonly used for accented letter) was added to the letter 26 times.
It has nothing to do with google itself, that character was in the meta tag of one of the sites it crawled and thus shown in the search result.
The link Alex posted, provides detailed explanation on this.

I am getting re-directs with 'webhp' something like:
https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=div+with+arrow+css&start=10
I also notice that my Google Chrome Bookmark star looks differently and when I click on it I get:
I guess I can't post images...It is a strange bookmark pop-up when I click on the star.
Is this a virus and how do I get back to my old bookmark star?
Bookmark Star
Only this could cause the changing of the bookmark star
Chrome update (new version with new UI)
Shortly my answer is No:
because I don't think a malware is not being involved with changing the bookmark star of your browser
A trojan and other virus is designed to steal data on the PC or to weeken your computer
You can get the bookmark star back with maybe a downgrading If it's relly caused by an update
Re-directs
It could be a Toolbar.
With Toolbar, I don't mean the one with the tools on your browser, I mean the ones like the default page changers like:
Ask toolbar
Yontoo toolbar
Babylon toolbar
Not all of them are malicious, some of them come with installations like adwares

I don't know really how to ask this as a question because I'm not sure what is going on: in my Google Chrome browser the search bar's text is upside down when I try to type in it or click on it, everything else on the page is the proper way and when I click off the search bar the text goes back to normal. Is there something that I may have done to have this happen? It just started today and it is really really annoying. The only inference I have seen about this happening to someone else was on here: http://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/comments/336245/ and although several people claimed to have a similar problem that started occuring this week no one has been able to solve it
Go into your Chrome Settings > Advanced Settings > un-check Use hardware acceleration when available.
Not sure why but it fixed my issue. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
