    Web browsers not working


    So everything was working fine until today when google chrome didn't want to open,When you click on the program it only shows that loading cusor for 1 sec and thats it.Next thing I tried was launching IE,he launched but 1 sec stopped responding (you could see only white before he stopped responding) and after 1 min or a bit less he just closed.So I deleted Chrome and tried to install via usb chrome and firefox and they both wont launch,later I tried that Steam in-game browser and it was working normaly.Ofc I had internet(wireless adapter) all the time.Pls help if you know how.

    Hi and welcome to SevenForums,
    Use Clean boot,
    Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup
    Click Start and type in the search box,
    msconfig
    Click on the suggestion on top or hit the Enter key,
    Go to the Startup section and take some screen shots for a complete list,
    Go to the Services section and on the bottom left Check the box to Hide All Microsoft services,
    Repeat the screen shots,
    See the links above my signature on how to take and upload screen shots here,
    Cheers.

    If clean startup doesn't help, perhaps a System Restore to a date prior to the issue will (System Restore).

    I see 3 anti virus programs, that's not good. That is one of your problems, you may have more.

    Avast
    AVG
    Kaspersky

    One anti virus program on one computer at one time.

    Pick one and remove the other two using their online removal tools.

    Hi,
    I have a stupid question,
    Which do you now use ?
    Because the others need to be properly Uninstalled but first check the item in msconfig list then do it

    Then run the appropriate uninstaller,

    I left avg since I used him for years and he had the most potential virus reports(most of them were really viruses).And when I uninstalled avast that fixed the problem and for kaspersky his trial has finished so he was just chilln in the background.

    You do not want anti virus programs chilling in the background.

    You want one anti virus program installed and active and all others removed completely.

    I wanna thank you,


    I too have this problem above only mine is with IE 11, I would click on the icon to load my homepage google.com only to have it load for about 3 secs and then go to a different address google.com/?gws_rd=ssl being a white page with a loading icon spinning next to google as if it was trying to load, same thing happened if I did it with msn.com or any other web address, so I looked all over the web only to find out I wasn't alone as others had the same problem, I followed one persons ideal to try to reset the IE 11, didn't work, then another person said maybe it might be a problem with extensions and had me hit f12 and I was lost on what he said to do as I am not a master at PC programing at all, Then I seen a ideal about loading IE 11 without addons, I tried it and this is what happened, the browser came up as "can not load page because all IE addons, activex and such was disabled, but here is the funny part if I left the browser that said "can not load" open, all other browsers would load right up without a problem but if I closed it I would be back to stage one, so I kept searching and then I seen this forum with the ideal of uninstalling IE 11 tried it didn't work, but however the ideal above about the msconfig clean boot proved great results!, I took screenshots of both startup and services, then I did stage one of the clean boot and as soon as my computer loaded IE 11 work with no problems and that's where I am at right now....., by the way the Ideal above was very well explained thanks for that!
