Hello,

I am using Google Chrome and for a while now I no longer have the window control buttons.
I don't know if I pressed something, but I can't restore them. Instead, the bar above the tabs is completely black.

Thank you in advance and have a nice day.

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 86.0.4240.75

    Hello,

    1- Google Chrome is off-screen.
    Left-click on the top bar and hold it down
    You can drag the Google screen wherever you want.
    Resize the window as you wish by pulling the corners.

    Also try double-clicking on the horizontal bar at the top.


    2- From the Google Chrome shortcut on the Desktop.
    Or from the taskbar in both cases, right-click on the Google Chrome shortcut.
    Then --► Properties
    Tab --► Shortcut
    Next to Run select ''Normal window'' or ''Maximized window''
    Click to finish on OK.


    3- zoom.
    Keyboard shortcut ==► control (Ctrl) + 0 (zero)

    4- Open Google Chrome
    Open a new window using the keyboard shortcut ==►Ctrl + N
    This is a quick but temporary solution to restore missing Chrome buttons in the upper right corner

    5- End the process ==► ''Desktop Window Manager'' (DWM.EXE).
    Close Google Chrome.
    Open the task manager (CTRL+Alt+Delete if you don’t know how).
    Select the Processes tab
    Scroll down to Windows Processes.
    Right-click on --► Desktop Window Manager
    Then End task

    Restart Google Chrome.

    6- Reset Google Chrome.
    Export your bookmarks as a precaution in HTLM format.
    Clear everything in the address bar and copy/paste ==► chrome://settings/reset
    Press the Enter key
    Click on --► Restore default settings


    7- Use ResetBrowser


    Misc: Screen resolution.
    Lower the screen resolution.

      Hello
      Thank you very much for your time.
      The first solutions didn’t work, but CTRL+N did open a page with the missing buttons, and ResetBrowser fixed my issue.

      Thanks again for your help, and have a great day! <3

    Hello

    I'm not sure, but have you tried pressing F11 or Fn+F11? (depending on the keyboards)

      Thank you for your help, but it puts the window in full screen. My window is in the right format; it's just that the buttons are really missing.

      For my part, I confess that I have searched repeatedly and found no solutions for you.
