How to troubleshoot? Google Chrome Malfunctioning: Console Freezes & Websites Timeout - google-chrome

I've had intermittent issues with Google Chrome the past month. I'll open a new tab and a page will time out, and the dev console has been freezing on me.
I'm stumped on how to fix it?
List of things I've done.
Suspected malware, ran Sophos, came up with nothing.
Cleared Chrome of all extensions, cache and localStorage.
Removed Sync / user profile.
Uninstalled & reinstalled (this was before clearing all the saved browser settings)
I'm on Chrome 63.0.3239.132
Am I the only one experiencing this?
Any general advice?
Maybe try going down a few browser versions?

Had it happen today this was my fix - I have no idea what the cause was.
Settings -> Advanced -> Reset

Cloud Shell: Editor is not loading in incognito mode

So I have been following the following step for past few months:
Log in to Google Cloud Console from Chrome's incognito mode
Activate Cloud Shell
From there, I usually opened Editor and managed my files in a new window
Today while I was following the above steps, this issue raised up:
Basically, I cannot open editor anymore. I have already went through similar posts, and my issue is that I am using incognito where browser extensions or cookies shouldn't be an issue.
I am facing this problem for the first time and if anyone knows what is the cause or any suggestions would be appreciated.
EDIT:
For now Microsoft Edge InPrivate Mode is working for me. I am still interested in fixing the issue for Chrome.
Have reported the issue in Issue Tracker. Please "start" for more attention.
This started happening recently because third-party cookies stopped being supported in Incognito mode as of Chrome 83. Third-party cookies are required for the editor to work because of the way the open-source Theia IDE is integrated into Cloud Shell. The team is exploring various fixes, but in the mean time the following workaround should work:
In Incognito Mode, click on the crossed out 'eye' icon on the address bar.
Click on 'Site not working?'
Click on 'Allow cookies'
Safari problem stems from the same issue, but I am not certain if a similar workaround exists.
I've encountered the same issue myself (I tried this on Chrome running on both ChromeOS and MacOS) - it looks like a bug so in this case I'd recommend reporting it on Google's Issuetracker (you can even put a link to this post).
UNfortunately it looks like it's not just the Chrome browser. I tried this on Safari 13.1 and found the issue you described is also present.
I didn't check other browsers but IssueTracker is the way to go. And be patient :)

Unable to log into Bitbucket on Chrome

When i tries to log in to Bitbucket (web-based version controller) on Chrome (google chrome web browser), i consistently get,
Oops, you've made a malformed request.
If you came here from a link we sent you, please contact support.
This can happen on Chrome. (works fine on Chrome incognito) This issue occurred when i try resetting my password.
then, i founded a solution from Atlassian Cloud Support. this
but, that's not resolve my problem.
In my research, it seems that people have experienced this error before, but none of worked solution i didn't found.
Any help some else is appreciated!
Thanks.
First thing - try to log into BitBucket in another browser, or in incognito mode:
Windows: ctrl + shift + n
Mac: cmd + shift + n
If it doesn't work then your best bet is to contact Atlassian support.
But if it works, then it's a big chance that an extension is causing the issue.
What you should do is disable all your extensions (type in the URL bar: chrome://extensions) and re-enable each extension, one by one, until you find the culprit.
For me it was this extension causing the problem:
Library Detector v5.6.0
I hope this helps you.
As snishalaka mentioned, https://poperblocker.com/ caused my atlassian Oops, you've made a malformed request problem. Disable it then login. Finally, you can turn on again.
As mentioned in the comments, just click 'Allow Popups' in the site in your popup blocker plugin and it will work fine.
Because it works in incognito, it sounds like there's some bad caching or something along those lines. Navigate to Bitbucket, open developer tools (menu -> More Tools -> Developer Tools), navigate to the Application tab, and in the top section of the left pane, click Clear storage. Now in the right pane, you should see several checkboxes and a "Clear site data" button. Click that, reload the page, and try again.
I had the same issue, couldn't login to Atlassian with Chrome. Strangely it was working on incognito. This lead me to checking my Chrome Extensions. One of the extensions I had installed, which was deactivated in incognito, was causing the issue. After removing it, everything went back to normal.
There may be several reasons for this issue. One was, account created earlier and now that was inactive. Other reason can be, login mail used in other bitbucket workspace(in other organization you worked before). So better to send this question to Atlassian support to resolve.
You can raise a question using below form.
ask bitbucket question
search other bitbucket questions
Well the issue for me was due to utorrent extension, soon after i disabled that it started working fine.

Google Chrome Microphone problems. No joy whatever the settings

I've been getting annoyed from this. It was used to work fine, but it must have happened with some recent update.
I'm on Google Chrome 71 and the microphone doesn't work. Regardless the extension (including Google Meet) and the settings which clearly shows the microphone as active, the audio is not passing sounds in.
The audio settings at computer level are fine, the chrome settings are fine and the microphone is enabled and whitelisted for the given site.
I tried also to fully reset the browser, restoring to the original settings and to use unlinking my accounts. No joy.
Conversely, while using Chromoium (Google Canary) everything works fine.
Has anybody experiencing the same or found a solution?
Ok, in a nutshell - and after having reported this to their chrome bug center - it turned out to be an issue I (and very likely many other users) have been experiencing with the upgrade to MoJave.
Basically, the upgrade seems to remove the microphone access at OS level.
To fix/check this, go into System Preference > Security and Privacy > Microphone and re-instate the check to Google Chrome, which should in theory unticked as it was on my case.

Chrome - Microphone blocked even if it shows allowed

I am trying to implement and use the Chrome Speech API on my website but I'm not able to do it. The response I receive is that the "Permission to use microphone is blocked" but it really isn't. Microphone settings in Chrome are clearly showing that I don't have sites blocked and that the system should it least ask.
It is not a problem with the website because I have performed tests on other computers and it is working fine. I would like to figure out the settings/preferences that need to be readjusted in order to make this work.
In addition to this, in C:\Users\MY-USER\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Preferences I was able to see entries for my site and I removed them but nothing changed. I tried also (not in order:
1- Reset Chrome.
2- Uninstalling/reinstalling Chrome. Manually removing files and registry entries.
3- Run Chrome in incognito mode.
4- Run ChromeCleanup Tool
5- Not working on Chrome Canary.
6- Every computer was tested on the same internet connection.
I am not sure what else I can do about this.
Thanks!

How did my Google chrome extensions got automatically deleted?

So, this is what it happened, I was at my college using my laptop at it's last stage of power coz i forgot the charger at home. So i closed the lid. Put the laptop in bag and came home, astonished to find that the laptop was switched off.(Not hibernated) Then i opened chrome and was using it and suddenly i saw ads. And quickly checked my extensions and found that all of my extensions had disappeared. with a message "Boo... You have no extensions :-("
Any idea how i could restore the extensions back? I don't even remember the name of all extensions. I read somewhere that logging into Google account will re-sync the extensions. But i just realized that the last time i logged into chrome using Google account was a year ago.
I suspect it's some bug of Chrome.
Any ideas? Suggestions? Please!
Well you could try logging in with your Google account. Perhaps you were logged in to Chrome, and it somehow logged out.
Also it's quite a known issue, check: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/142059
Easy fix - just reinstall any one of your previous extensions and the rest will all reappear as they are cached at Google.
If you were logged in with your Google account, just open https://chrome.google.com/webstore/user/library
