Hi,
Is anyone else having issues or knows why if I have several tabs open and swap to an already open tab that it reloads?
I've also noticed that if I right click on something to open a new tab that the tab won't load until I click on it.
It's really annoying as I usually always right click to open tabs for them to load.
I've done a virus check, a scan for malware and run a registry clean to no avail.

Is it a bandwidth saving feature?
There are ways to 'force refresh' a chrome update (it updates automatically) maybe a new update their end is buggy?

It sounds like a memory saving feature. I've found people complaining about it on the chrome books. I'm guessing they rolled this feature out on the latest update.
This feature will make my data usage go up as chrome will be reloading pages several times.
I've just tired reinstalling chrome, no change.

Same, so if you guys open up say four youtube videos by right clicking on them they all load up and start to play. If you pause them and carry on browsing in other tabs then go back to them they're still there at the same point and the tab doesn't reload?

I've noticed that but only if I've about 10 or 12 tabs open, I thought it was down to the slowness of the laptop.

It looks like I have got Win32/KipodToolsCby virus. MS Defender says it has got rid of it but I think it's still there as I'm still getting the issue and I can't now up date MS defender.
I've tried manually installing the update via the Mpam-fe.exe file download but it won't run lol
Trying to run it in safemode doesn't work ether.
