1389640 2014-12-05 20:47:00 Hi this is my first time posting. My Google Chrome keeps doing this weird thing in the address bar even after re instillation and reset of settings. Does any body know how I can fix it?

1389641 2014-12-05 20:51:00 Yep weird.

My first action personally, would be to uninstall it and try again, which you have already done, but have you restarted your pc after uninstalling?
Sometimes this releases a stubborn bit of program stuffing things up.

Failling that, it could be that Chrome doesn't like your particular pc, like it didn't like a recent laptop I had.

1389642 2014-12-05 21:10:00 Yeah I tried restarting after uninstalling but no luck bentheroksta (17322)
1389643 2014-12-05 21:21:00 Try to narrow down the problem -- Does it dispaly the same in other browsers Eg: IE or Firefox? This will tell if its Chrome or some other problem.

Also what Antivirus software do you use, its not showing in the Icon Tray in your pic.

Edited: have a read of code.google.com Similar problem, some suggested answers as well, might be a case of try each one and see :)

1389645 2014-12-06 01:11:00 Might be some corrupt and left-over configuration file\registry entry etc causing the problem, which isn't getting removed when you do a standard uninstall.

You could try an uninstaller cleanup program like Revo uninstaller.
