    Mystery of the Vanishing "Gmail" & "Images" Links

    Hi
    I am currently plagued with this (latest) irritant: I open up my Google homepage and in the top right corner is my email inbox icon, here in Google Chrome referred to as β€œGmail”, next to which is the link 'Images". Now here’s a strange thing: on each occasion I open up another Google webpage (while keeping the original one running) I’m now treated to a momentary glimpse of the β€œGmail” and β€œImages” links; but within that fleeting instant (a quarter of a second?) they both vanish from sight, never to be seen again. One can repeat this process over and again until the screen is filled with Google webpages - and not one of them includes the aforementioned β€œGmail” or β€œImages” links. I’ve been using computers for over twenty years now (and still the forever novice), but I must say this this is a new one on me. Any ideas what’s causing it? And why?

    Many thanks.

      Is this actually causing a problem? Have you tried resetting Chrome?

      Gus wrote a guide on doing just this.

      OR…


      Download ResetBrowser To your desktop.
      Now close all open browsers.
      Right click and run as administrator.

      Click on Reset Chrome– Allow completion.
      Now reboot your machine.


      OR…

      Chrome Clean up Tool.

          Hi,
          No, the situation remains unchanged. The fact is that I’ve almost got used to it now. Sad but true.

              Well the same thing happens to me and I’m on Palemoon.

              I clicked on the Images link and was sent here
              Google Images
