Chrome Browser..

Post by TOR_LordRaven »

Tabs acting funky in Chrome Browser all of a sudden.

When opening a new tab, clicking on said tab closes it instead of switching to it.
If you hit the back button on the browser, it opens that previous page in a new tab, but you cant open it either because it gets closed when you click it.

Restarted (No effect)
Uninstall/reinstall chrome (no effect)

No other apps effected. Anyone else see this?

Sounds like the control key on your keyboard is stuck.

Since Google released a new version resonantly. Revert to the previous version and see if the same problem still occurs.

The other input possibility is that somehow in chrome menus your mouse left click has been swapped with the middle click which would also cause those same behaviors.
