    Made sure that you were signed out on every other system?

    You can also log all of them out through Your Devices
    Yup. I made sure there were no more connections with any mobile phones.

      Also I signed out of each of the other devices one by one.

        I think I can safely presume that I have not found any foreign/outside/suspicious sign-ins. So all I can do is just hope for the best and consider this problem solved. Thank you.

          If you have not done already is turn on Two Factor Authentication and change the password.

          Alway check to see what is and where is signed form.

                Done the tests but the message is still there so I just have to ignore it. You can close the thread now if you want.

                  Have you tried running incognito mode?

                  reset the browser to factory or run without add-ons?

                    Already. This time I have the message at the bottom right saying β€œOpen in 2 other locations”. Must be nothing serious since I really do have two windows open. So if next time the message says β€œOpen in 1 other location” it must be referring to just my sole window I’m using that is open. I hope.

                      Sign out of all devices, and then change your password.

                      This wikiHow teaches you how to remotely sign out of your Google account anywhere you're still signed in. Although there's no single button that lets you sign out of multiple devices at the same exact time, you can quickly sign out of...

                          What happens immediately after signing out of all devices and then logging back in, does it still show 2 devices connected?

                            After that, it says just one is open.

                                Maybe. I asked someone else to open his gmail account on my PC and it also has the same message so I try not to think too much about it anymore. Guess I have no choice but to accept things as they are.
