May I ask what Chrome setting?

If you disable the setting "Predict network actions to improve page load performance" to speed up Chrome/Dragon/Iron, and clean with the default "history" option checked in CCleaner, then it will re-enable the setting. It has done this now since version 3.23.1823 and Piriform has been notified, but the don't seem to care. CCleaner is the only drive cleaner that does this. Wise, SlimCleaner, System Ninja, ect... all don't do this.

If you haven't tried disabling that setting, give it a go, I think you will be impressed how much quicker Chrome loads, especially on a page with 100's of links on it.


EDIT: BTW, with "history" checked, I analyzed with CCleaner, then I added everything it found in the history section to the exclude list. Then I re-analyzed again, and it found nothing at all in history, however, if I then hit clean with history checked (even though there is nothing to clean) it will still re-enable the setting. So it isn't as simple as "just exclude the folder/file that causes the issue".

What cleaning options for Chrome have been checked in CCleaner?

I have the following disabled:
- Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors
- Predict network actions to improve page load performance
- Use a web service to help resolve spelling errors
- Automatically send usage statistics and crash reports to Google

I've not experienced any change in settings to Chrome after using CCleaner.

In CCleaner, if you have Internet History checked under Google Chrome, then it will break the setting. Confirmed by many users.
