Why is my Chrome browser so slow?

My chrome browser version 78.0.3904.108 (official build) (64-bit) has unfortunately become very slow, but when navigating in your own library, so laptop internally not online, it is faster.

Does anyone know why that is? What can I do so that I do not always have to wait up to 20 seconds for the page to accept and execute scrolling, or 30 seconds or more for me to go into such a field as here. What can write?

Of course, my laptop is not as fast as it was at the beginning, but I find it strange that navigating on the laptop itself is faster than here in the browser. I have some bookmarks and settings that make navigation easier, it would be a pity if I uninstall the browser and then re-enter everything after reinstalling.

Or

Try to clear your cache.

Go to your browser and press CTRL + H.

This is how you open your history. On the left side you will find "delete browser data". Here you can then specifically the history or under "extended" also delete the cache. That should help you!

Cache: Each website provides data that you load on your computer so it will load faster the next time you open it.

Sc

Times after Malware or extensions scanned? Clear Cache / Resets (wanted) Extensions can also bring back the original "feeling".

Basically, if you're signed in to Chrome, you can uninstall the browser as many times as you like, all private data will be transferred to the account.

Thanks, that actually helped. It still hops, but not so strong and it loads faster. Maybe the browser just needs something until it runs smoothly again?

Or

Maybe delete even more useless stuff? You can also install the CCleaner. Is a free program that cleans up your computer. But you have to be sure in what you do there.

I have Norton active and he says everything is okay. Aha so it is like the smartphone, with username and password, it immediately loads everything that is stored without laboriously copying everything?

Sc

Oh yes, Norten…

But you're right, everything is saved.

li

I have already installed it and just let it work about 2 hours ago, but unfortunately that did not help. 😔 I also deleted about half of the videos from the hard drive (after transferring them to an external hard drive) to get it faster, which did not help much, so I thought it must be the browser itself.

li

What do you mean by "oh yes"? Can't something important? OK good to know.

Or

If the calculator is already a bit older, it may just be due to the hardware. The programs are getting bigger, they need more power to work and already they slow down because the computer does not have enough resources anymore.

What does your Task Manager show you under Performance?

For example:

CPU utilization 2%

Memory: 7,9GB of 32GB

GPU: 1%

Norten was previously known for extreme user-friendliness, uninstalling almost did not work without external programs.

Meanwhile, their debit system and warnings that occur before the expiry of the subscription, but very extreme based on fear and possible little information.

Windows Defender is still enough for the average user. But of course a lot of opinions split.

li

My laptop is about 3 years old.

CPU varies between 4 and 13%

RAM 46GB of 64GB

GPU between 0 and 3%

Hmm ok I have been asked many times what I have for an Antivir program and when I said Norton, almost everybody said that it was one of the better ones. Was that so wrong? I was informed by Norton more often via Pupup that an attack was fended off and I did not have to do anything. But I could see, from whom rsp what side had come. But these pop-ups were not bundled, so to speak, just before the end of the subscription. My father was a computer scientist and is still good at the computer today and he immediately asked me for the key when I got the subscription. Go with me for 5 devices and he is convinced of Norton, so I always thought that it is a good program, because he has a good idea of computer technology. He also recommended the CCleaner for me.

Or

Very uncommon that the CPU% your memory is so high!

Sc

Norten is not a bad AV, it's just overrated in my eyes, pop-ups that protect you from danger, but do not tell you what it is, are a sign of that.

If Windows Defender does not recognize the danger, Norten will not be able to do much more.

li

Maybe because I have some videos still on it? I have 525GB memory free from 913GB. Of course not all videos but a big part is already video material and pictures.

li

Well it already says Trojan or something and the source is actually displayed, but I know some of the sources do not stop and then think, if I was on a page, where this Trojan z.b. Has seen that I was there and then wanted to creep in the background rsp who has sent the.

Sc

Trojans do not "sneak in". You download something and run it, so viruses come to your computer.

0-Click exploits in the net are very… Very very rare.

And certainly not on websites where normal users go.

li

Okey so if I click on something to download scans Norton bevors actually goes to the store. What do you call the bad guys who want to attack you when you're online but just do not download or install anything? I do not know what to do which way to what cause damage? Because when scanning, so in the Norton in there, when the laptop is scanned for bad guys on the computer, who has never said that something is. It is rather that without such scann something is repelled or is warned by a link, or a website.

Sc

"Click and I have access to your computer" does not exist in this form without an exploit.

Also, no one will try to "hack" while surfing. These are movie myths

Chrome and Defender are about to download, exactly the same as Norten. Website warnings speaks chrome also of itself, for complete security, I recommend there rather Adguard, since there user-work.

In summary: Norten and just like most other anti-virus software, is not necessary for the normal user. What Windows Defender does not recognize will not recognize Norten or other software.

And to get at such software, you really have to get into bad corners of the internet.
