Chrome running badly windows 10 after updates

[hans gruber]

I fresh reinstalled windows pro 10 64bit from a 2016 usb version. Shortly after I installed chrome and it ran fine. I let windows do all its updates. Now chrome is running super slow. It opens but pages take ages to load or time out. I uninstalled and reinstalled, tried compatibility checker, disabled firewall but nothing fixes it. There are not addons installed. I have no other programs installed just a clean version of windows. It was fine until it ran the big update.

Can anyone offer help how to fix it?

Well I reinstalled windows and waited for all updates (this time I created a system image). I put chrome on first and it's still super slow. Sometimes I can get the google homepage to load and other times it times out. I played with firewall setting etc. renamed the chrome exe as a few youtube videos suggest.

Anyway I found chrome beta and installed that and it works fine.

EDIT: Scratch that. Chrome beta is better but still frequently times out.

EDIT2: It's definitely a Windows 10 CryptSvc issue. Restarting the service and chrome runs fine. Now to fix it.

Well I've had a good bash but it's time to move on with my life. Let's see what Microsoft Edge is like.
