Hello, I use Google Chrome as my browser, but since yesterday, I can't access it anymore.

When I launch it, an error message appears:
"Google Chrome is blocked. Do you want to relaunch it now?

and then Google Chrome has stopped working

I uninstalled and reinstalled it, but it still does the same thing!!!

I placed TDSSKiller in the Google Chrome folder; it found something, and I repaired it, but that doesn't work!!

I need help!!!!!!!!!!

If someone can help me

Thank you in advance

Uninstall Google Chrome
Run CCleaner as an administrator for a good cleanup
Reinstall it.

What does it do to run it as administrator?
Am I also deleting my browsing data??

Thank you for the information.
The cleaning alone with CCleaner was enough for me! *\o/*

I have the same problem, but no matter how hard I try with CCleaner and reinstalling Chrome, nothing changes; I still get the same error message.

I also faced this problem recently, and after searching for several days on countless forums, I managed to solve the issue on my end (although I'm not sure if the cause of the problem is the same for you...)

In fact, it's a virus infestation that occurs when installing new software; it sneakily installs a 'toolbar' (Babylon/Delta Search/Ask) in the settings and in the registry of various web browsers.
<avoid software from other sites, ALWAYS download from the official site!>

In principle, correcting the default search engine in the Google Chrome settings (Google instead of Toolbar Search) AND uninstalling the toolbar via the Control Panel/uninstall a program should restore speed;

However, that wasn't enough for me; I was still experiencing delays of 15 seconds for each tab opening;

I then consulted numerous forums, tried improbable solutions, and nothing worked. I ran antivirus/malware scans with Zone Alarm, Malwarebytes, Windows Scan, Spybot..... nothing helped.

I then tried another antimalware: AdwCleaner to uncover and destroy this virus that was well hidden in the depths of my PC;

and there, after a 5-minute scan, closing other programs, then pressing the delete button at the end of the scan..... nothing remained!

the virus was destroyed! and Google Chrome regained the speed of its 20 years!

In short, I'm writing all this to help some people who have the same problem as me, considering it took me days to find the solution! Even though, be careful, this is not the absolute solution, and it may not work for you with AdwCleaner but with another one....

To summarize and conclude:
- 15-second delays for each tab = installed toolbar/virus
- if the problem is random and Firefox and other browsers are not affected, then it's not a connection or proxy issue, but a hidden virus!
- goal: run a scan with an antimalware (for me, AdwCleaner worked best) then click delete
- if the problem persists, try another antimalware, or reinstall Chrome from scratch, or attempt a complete registry cleanup / or at worst a major restore


hoping to help all those who have this problem.

See you!

My Google was blocked, I tried everything including a complete reset but nothing works. I then deleted the toolbars, did a scan and a removal with AdwCleaner. The Google tab opens but there is neither a homepage nor anything else, and if I do a Google search, it doesn't respond and continues to load. How can I get Google to work?

Hi.. I had the same problem.. I tried with CCleaner and then I reinstalled but nothing changed...

You do a browser cleanup from Avast and then you have to remove all the add-ons.. that's how I solved the problem..
As for the add-ons, you can install them later.. if you don't need them, then it's not necessary..

Restart AdwCleaner and click on delete.

Restart the PC.

Download and install --> MalwareBytes
Run it as administrator
Update the product
Start the quick scan.
If positive, delete the detection.

Try another browser to see if it's not your OS that's causing the issue.

Go to the control panel and uninstall all the toolbars and it will work again.
