My Google Chrome is on the fritz?

Question

I've used Chrome for years, but all of a sudden today, it started acting up.

If I click on a tab, it closes the tab.

If I click refresh, it opens up my current webpage on a new tab.

If I click the back arrow, it opens the last page I was on in a new tab.

It won't let me click in the search bar.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled it with no success. What on earth is going on?

Update:

I'll add: I'm on a touchscreen laptop, and if I use the touchscreen everything works normally. I'm only having problems when I use the mouse.

Answer 1

uninstall, and delete the Google folder here:

%LOCALAPPDATA%

then reinstall.
