Does anyone know how much increase in bandwidth use is caused by Chrome's pre-rendering feature? I know it uses algorithms to guess your next move and download parts of web pages in the background but I've been wondering if there is a comparison or analysis out there.

For some reason, my work machine's Chrome browser has this weird behavior that Firefox: When I select a dropdown element on a website (like a country list or a list of names or months) and start typing in it or use the arrow keys to quickly get to the selection I want, the moment I click out, the dropdown element reverts back to whatever it was on before. So if it was initially "[Select a Country]" and I start using the arrow keys or typing to quickly select "Azerbaijan", it will go to "Azerbaijan" and stay on it up to the point I click out of the element to move on. I can hit tab to make the selection stick, but I was wondering if this behavior is standard on Chrome (I feel like my home Chrome client doesn't do this). I know this is some trifling poo poo, but it's something I am doing constantly at work and I'd love to have this uniform across all my browsers.

Just started getting this weird problem a few moments ago, every once in awhile when I open a link in a new tab Chrome will close and IE will open, it doesn't even load the page it just opens. Any ideas?

Is there an extension that would allow you to double-click an image on a webpage and have it open in a new tab?

Why not just use hover zoom to load images? That way you don't need to deal with tabs.

Is there any way to directly/manually edit how Chrome handles certain file types? Why is such a seemingly fundamental feature so difficult to find?

Is anyone else getting really, really lovely search results in Chrome? I am, and it only happens when I'm signed into my main google account, and then only in Chrome, no other browser. It's not an errant plugin or virus. Incognito mode gives me expected, normal results. Personal results as well as Web History are turned off. I'm in the Chrome Beta channel. Am I in some horrible search algorithm beta? Is there any way out? Chrome search for "kindle":  Safari search for "kindle", signed into the same Google account:  Bonus Chrome search for "minus":

Back on the first page a goon talked about how him and a friend created Pandora Enhancer, I had it forever but just switched harddrives and i went to find it and it looks like it might of been removed. Is there a way I can look at my old harddrive which is being used as a secondary driver and find the extensions in the old chrome folder? If not, anyone know where I can get it?

Pandora didn't like him using their name, so he had to take off the Chrome Store. You can get it from his website. Also if you have a gmail account you can log in through chrome and it will back up all your extensions, passwords, etc. to the cloud. Makes restoring your chrome profile simple.

Its doesn't keep your extension settings, keep that in mind. I think they were going to try and sync those too, anyone know when that will be?

Yep use Hover Zoom, it's amazing and you will be lost without it after using it for a shortwhile. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nonjdcjchghhkdoolnlbekcfllmednbl Also while hovering press 'T' to open the image in a separate tab.

Is there any way to make the address bar leaner? The font size of the URL and the buttons are about 50% too large for my delicate taste.

Is there a way to turn off auto resize on the images? Having this problem on SA again. I thought it was fixed in the other SA Chrome app, but now they are getting resize again and putting a really annoying text below each image saying it was resize.

I thought it was fixed in the other SA Chrome app, but now they are getting resize again and putting a really annoying text below each image saying it was resize. That's (probably, unless another Chrome extension has started doing it) Fancy SA Forums. It does that to avoid table breaking, but I can understand why it would be really annoying in some situations (Let's Plays especially). Next version of Fancy SA will probably let you toggle it on/off; it's kinda glitchy anyways (fails to adds links to the full-size image *a lot* of the time for some reason).

I think I tried to ask this eariler in the thread but it still isn't working. On my work PC whenever I try to go to: https://news.google.com/nwshp?hl=en&tab=wn I recieve: "The site's security certificate is signed using a weak signature algorithm!" and there is no continue button just a back button. I know we use a proxy / websense so I would imagine it has something to do with that but I can't for the life of me figure it out, and my work has no idea either. I did get past that for a while using something like '-disable ssl' or like '-use system ssl' in the target field of properties but that stopped working as well. It works in IE and Mozilla so i have no idea what is going on with Chrome.

This allows the proxy to do man in the middle things for secure connections. If you click on the lock icon on the failed page, you can probably get a summary of what's wrong.

Every now and then, using my mousewheel on my Logitech G500 to scroll horizontally doesn't work. It seems to work after a full reboot but nothing else seems to work. The wheel definitely works in other programs, it seems side scrolling in Chrome is the only issue.

The only thing mine says is "The identity of this website has not been verified. Server's certificate is signed with a weak signature algorithm." Then in the second box it says my encryption with the website is 256-bit encrypted. Is there a way I can fix this?

I'd like to find a script or extension to do one simple thing - I hit a button, and it'll just go through all hotlinks to images in a webpage and preload the images in the background. So far I haven't had any luck, could anyone help me out?
