I just noticed that I can't rearrange tabs in Chrome like I used to be able to. Whenever I try to drag a tab to a new location, it opens in a new window. I have done some searching for others experiencing this issue, and I see it attributed to Microsoft Updates, new Chrome releases, Adobe, and a few other things. I've tried lots of suggested fixes, to no avail. I haven't reinstalled Chrome yet, but my research tells me that others have tried and it hasn't helped. This is happening on two different 7x64 machines. Is anyone else on this forum experiencing this behavior? Anybody had any success repairing it?
That's okay, Mister X, the more info I get the better I can diagnose. So far both members who responded aren't running Windows 7. Maybe it's an OS thing? FWIW, I just re-installed Chrome over top of the old version and got no change in the tab problem. I also tried it outside of Sandboxie and still had the issue. Thanks for the help.
Oops, I found the problem. With HMPA disabled, the tabs work fine. With it enabled, the issue returns. That simple. I post my findings to the developer.
Good to know. I tried to use HMP.A but an horrible BSOD at the time of install. I suggest MBAE, very stable indeed.
I think HMPA is a sweet program, and I am confident that the devs can work this out... if in fact it is their problem. Even though from my end, all signs point to their program, it could very easily be my computers, if those guys cannot replicate the behavior.
@Page42 I have reported this issue before. No response from developers at all. By any chance are you using DisplayFusion?
I am not using DisplayFusion. Say, why don't you respond to my post in the HMPA thread, especially the part about having reported it before and the dev did not respond. Thanks again for your help. How the heck did you discover that workaround?
I must have missed that topic when I was looking through 'New Posts'. Through trial and error, i had found that workaround.
