Why can't I change my homepage?
Okay so normally when I open a new tab (on Google Chrome) it will take me to google.com and also show me my recently visited pages. Well now when I open a new tab it shows me a blank search bar with an advertisment on top and bottom of the search bar. In the right corner it says 'results powered by Bing'. I clicked settings, advanced, apperance, then change homepage, and I typed "www.google.com" and clicked ok and nothing happened. I also tried to change it to Facebook and nothing changed...help me!!

I believe this is due to an offending extension installed in your Chrome. Try disabling ALL extensions in your chrome browser.

I think if you remove google chrome then again install then you can choose your homepage.
