Fix- Google Search Not Working in Google Chrome

If you are facing issues with Google Search Engine in your Chrome browser for PC or Android then today I have come up with a couple of tips to make your Google search work in your Chrome Browser. All other search engines work, all websites will open but only Google.com and its related web pages will not load. You will also notice a message “check the proxy and the firewall” & “err_connection_timed_out”.

Method I – Delete the Browser History

1. Open Menu. (Click on 3 dots on right top)

3. Here you will see an option of Restore defaults.
4. Open it and click on Restore defaults.
