    An active window lose focus unexpectedly after reinstalling Google Chrome


    I'm on Windows 10 Pro 1803. I recently did a reinstall of Google Chrome as it was behaving strangely. From then (I think) I'm losing focus from an active window suddenly. A program is stealing the focus from my active window.


    I've run Microsoft Safety Scanner and nothing was found.


    As you might guess, it's super annoying. I can't type a paragraph, something steals the focus. I can close that ghost program by pressing Alt + F4. Please help me out from this annoying disturbance.

    problem uninstalling google chrome

    Hi,

    Since you already uninstalled Google Chrome using the Programs and Features, Google notifications may still be running in the background processes. We suggest that you follow these steps on how to end the Google Chrome process:

    • On your keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
    • Select Task Manager.
    • Under Processes, locate Google Notifications or Google Chrome.
    • Right click on them and select End Task.
    • Double check under Programs and Features if Google Chrome is completely gone.

    Let us know if these steps worked.

    Google Chrome not working on Windows 10.

    Hi Tigerali,



    Thank you for your response with the current update on the issue.

    As suggested in the previous post, I recommend you to first uninstall the google chrome browser from the computer.

    After that try to download the google chrome browser software from the google website. Then try to reinstall google chrome browser software in compatible mode where you will install the software in previous version of Windows.

    I suggest you to follow the steps provided in the previous post to reinstall the google chrome browser.



    Please get back to us with an update on issue with using google chrome browser on Windows 10, we will be happy to help.



    Thank you.
