I'm having serious Google Chrome problems, how do I fix them? - Leo - 04-28-2014 06:19 PM

Hello. I've been using Google Chrome for years and am a help desk tech. I've never seen such problems using Google Chrome. I know it started after I downloaded a free translating program. Here is what is happening

First off: My new tab settings have been switched to a yahoo search engine (I had it set to Google)
Next: Google is now in Chinese and even after I reset it it stays in Chinese
I cannot change my default browser back to Google

I have reset all settings. Deleted the default folder, and deleted Chrome and re installed it and these problems continue to arise. Any help would be wonderful.

Thank you!

re-install operating system or learn Chinese.

why doesn't anyone ever ask google first?

I just did. Apparently you have some sort of virus.

I suggest downloading

1) rkill - from bleepingcomputer.com - run first
2)tdsskiller - from bleepingcomputer.com - run second
3)malwarebytes - from malwarebytes.com - free version, pay attention when going through installation you do not want to activate plus - run 3rd

4) your own anti-virus program.

Pay attention when you run rkill. It will tell you what it is doing/shutting down. Good luck.
