Discussion How to disable Yahoo on my labtop

2 Upvotes

Every time I update my Lenovo legion 6i my default browser seems to Yahoo even if I delete it before and afterward again. Typically I have to delete Yahoo and set my default browser back to Google Chrome each time. I'm not the most tech savvy so I'm not sure if I'm missing an easy solution or not. Any help is very appreciated 👍.

Troubleshooting | Windows What is saving these autofill suggestions & how do I erase the memory?

1 Upvotes

When using Chrome, from time to time, I get these random autofill suggestions- I'm not sure if it is something in Windows saving past entries or something within Chrome. Clearing the history in Chrome doesn't fix it, is it a Windows autofill issue?

The suggestions it gives can sometime be related to that field but some are from completely different websites, if that info helps.

I appreciate any help!

Troubleshooting | Windows chrome browser is very laggy on YouTube

1 Upvotes

it's vey random, sometimes it's smooth as butter.. and sometimes very laggy (the animations and clicking on stuff are super delayed at least a 3 sec delay) on YouTube in particular in this case.

  1. it has nothing to do with extensions

  2. it will be smooth if i open a new "guest" chrome profile

  3. other tabs of youtube videos are smooth, and others are not.

  4. i tried restarting the computer, turning hardware acceleration, etc.. nothing fixed it for me so far

i'm kind of hesitant on switching to Microsoft Edge or a different browser at this point, it's butter smooth there so far too.

i don't want to reset settings or something like this because it will be a real hassle to replace all boomarks, cookie sessions, etc

if you experienced this, any help will be appreciated.

Troubleshooting | Solved Missing "Manage Windows" option FIX via chrome://flags. Should work for IOS and Android

Search for

> In-app window manager deprecation

In chrome://flags. And DISABLE it, enabling does nothing or makes it worse

I found a fix for the missing Manage Windows but also discovered my Inactive Tabs are now gone despite having disabled the option for Inactive Tabs to disappear after x amount of time spent Inactive.

That explains why the tabs I was searching for werent showing up. Because they were completely fucking closed. Those motherfuckers sabotaged months of progress on several projects across several windows. Go figure. Submit an update no one wants to get rid of a feature everyone was using, make people have to either deal with it or enable a chrome flag just to see all their windows are deleted. Thanks, dick 🖕🖕

Troubleshooting | Android On Android is it possible to retrieve auto-deleted browsing history exceeding 90 days ago through any conceivable method? I can't recover it whether I'm signed in or out of an account.
