so you are not opening additional windows, it just shows up as entries in your task manager???? you can try to reset chrome to default and you can try clearing the cache and cookies to see if it helps.

Hello & Thanks ,
Whenever I open up Chrome
it opens up 6 more Chromes (says Task Manager).
How can I get it to open up only one Chrome ?
I deleted all Chrome extensions , but no better .
Thanks...Vern
