    How do I remove Grey Text in Google Chrome?

    Hey there PC Help Forum,

    for some reason A LOT of the text in google chrome is in unreadable light-grey text like in the screenshots below. I have no idea how this happened, I’ve had it before and managed to fix it but it came back and now I don’t know what to do.

    Windows 7
    If you need any more info let me know.




    Would be greatly appreciated if someone could help!

    Reset Chrome!

    Download ResetBrowser To your desktop.
    Now close all open browsers. All browsers MUST be closed during this operation!
    Right click and run as administrator.

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

          It would seem you are definitely not alone here, and lots are suffering the same issue. You could try this which appears to help some people HERE or otherwise switch to another browser to test.

          PS: If you have Helvetica font you could also try removing it, seems to have helped some..

            Thanks a ton! That video/extension worked!
            People were saying I downloaded a font that didn’t go well with chrome but I had no idea which one it was/is. That all doesn’t matter now though since its fixed!

            Thanks everyone for helping,really appreciate it!:LOL:
