<deleted>Ah! Found what problem is, Chrome is running umpteen times in Task Manager. Dunno why.</deleted>
Ah, no, that was bulwarks, not the problem. Some programs do have multiple processes. Edge has even more and I haven't even used it today. Seems to be no way of finding out which process is which unfortunately.

Stop using it soon. So slow and often freezes, using about 32% of my CPU and 70% of my memory.

Is Chrome getting more forgetful?
I tend to build orders on websites by putting things I need or might need in my basket and then coming back to refine at the end -often this can be spread over a day or more when planning a project.
The last few days, I keep finding my basket has emptied and I have to start again. Many/most sites don't provide a 'save' button and often I haven't created an account with the site anyway until I decide I want to buy from them - I may be building the same order on two sites to get a comparative price.
I also seem to see pages re-request cookies far more commonly than they used to, and sites like Screwfix/Toolstation forget my chosen local store now after what seems like only a few hours - I have to reset this every time whereas before it would remember.
Has Google made changes in Chrome somehow which might be to blame - is this all related to cookies or something else? It's pretty irritating.Tags: None
