Posted May 29, 201114 yr Ok I use Google Chrome for my browser. Suddenly today when I hove over the Chrome icon in the task bar it won't preview my open tabs like usual. If I use Win Explorer it still does, and it does for every other program but not for Chrome. I am trying to figure out what I fucked up. Can anyone help?J
May 29, 201114 yr i wouldnt know off hand... But since other programs\windows still work, we can rule out Aero not turned on or functioning properly!First thing i would do is just restart the computer and try again...Maybe a glitch or a temporal out of memory scenario occured without you knowing.
May 30, 201114 yr Well, after doing some reading, i just found out that Chrome ONLY supports preview tabbing in windows 7 so if it worked in Vista, you were damn lucky when it was working.
May 30, 201114 yr I was like wtf, XP doesn't have a preview on the browser.... anyway, does this help?In Explorer, browse to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\ and right-click on chrome.exe, selecting Properties.Under the Compatibility tab uncheck the box that reads Run this program in compatibility mode for.
May 30, 201114 yr that is what you want to do in Win7 if u do NOT want to see tabbing, lol...and.. i'm not 100% but isn't it impossible to run anything in vista compatibility mode on vista?, lol
