Troubleshooting Bing on Google Chrome

[King Alpha]

Everytime I start my PC, Google Chrome opens automatically with Bing as the default search engine. I've checked its settings but Bing is not set as the default search engine. Tried to reset Chrome's settings but no luck. I've also uninstalled Bing Bar and Bing Desktop but it's still there in Chrome. I don't know what to do now.

P.S. My startup is about 1min + which is not normal.

I will highly appreciate any help guys. Thanks in advance!

Another fine Micropoo add on. I am sure someone here knows how to uninstall it. The only other option is to remove Chrome & reinstall it. Maybe adwcleaner will remove it?

" My startup is about 1min + which is not normal."

• I'm pretty sure that is the average boot time.

Try reinstalling the browser & deleting the folder.


btw why would you download bing bar?

It was installed a couple of months ago, I'm having this problem just now.

My average startup is about 35-45 secs. BTW I installed windows updates earlier.

Open the "Properties" window (Right-click on the icon > Properties) of the Chrome shortcut and make sure you don't have anything after "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" string in the Target field as shown in the image below:

Hope this helps!

I had some updates earlier too, but have you tried system restore? Does the issue occur on all browsers?

Micropoo? Microsoft? Haha.

I've tried this but there's no other strings after "chrome.exe".

In Google Chrome only.

In Google Chrome only.

So it doesn't affect chromium clones? That seems a bit strange....

Check this on ccleaner and see if there is anything strange

That cigar smoking cowboy is online now. You might have to saddle up & give him a visit.
