CTRL and F

PudseyDB

I'm hoping someone can help. On windows and google chrome - I often use CTRL and F to find items/words on websites.

Now suddenly the search box is not appearing on my screen, although it still highlights the words after I've typed them in. How do I fix it so I can see the box again please?

Are you sure it's vanished?

It appears in the top right of Chrome on mine. It's a dropdown extension of the tool bar

Same here, Top right underneath (other bookmarks)

If you go to the Chrome options menu in the top right (this displays a drop-down menu) and go to 'Settings'

click - show advances settings (this will be right at the bottom)

find 'System'

Uncheck 'use hardware accelleration'

quit and reopen Chrome

does Ctrl-F work now?

If what Ant555 says doesn't work - have you downloaded the latest version of Chrome?
