The latest version of Edge has exactly the same problems on my laptop - never gets off "processing request"!!

Microsoft Edge Version 83.0.478.58 (Official build) (64-bit) is running sweet as a nut on my laptop at the moment but ...oh dear,...that info you posted is  a bit disconcerting.

However, prompted by the helpful post above by ‘rdr’ I’ve just revisited Google Chrome and removed ‘AdBlock Plus’ which I’ve had running for years...voila!...Google Chrome works properly again.

I  then reloaded AdBlock Plus, fully expecting a return of the “"processing request" problem, but Google Chrome continued to work fine.

A full reboot, just to make sure, and Google Chrome (and AdBlock Plus) functioning normally.

All is well again.

Thanks, BigDick - will try again by removing Adblock Plus.

Many thanks to those suggesting removal of Adblock Plus. This seems to have resolved the problem I have had with Google Chrome. I am no longer tearing my hair out.

Me neither - worked like a charm!

I am surprised by just how much I missed using Chrome on my laptop, considering I am always using my tablet and phone but so relieved to have it back. No migrating to Edge for me.
