I experienced a similar problem that it stopped searching eBay from the bar, I think I just reinstalled it. I believe it can save all your settings, not sure though.

Try right clicking on the address bar and clicking "Edit search engines". Make sure Google is selected as default.

I never right clicked it but I have checked in the tools options and saw that it's still there as default

I'll admit it.  I'm still a FF user but am looking to finally convert.

But Chrome bothers me in that if I have 6+ tabs open it blocks the minimize options in the top-right corner.
FF preserves those 3 buttons no matter how many tabs you have.

Any workarounds?

Don't have that issue. In fact, I've never had that issue in 24 mos using Chrome. And I have a lot more than 6 tabs open normally.

You have to actually sign in to Chrome for that.

Here is a screenshot of what I'm talking about with tabs blocking the minimizer buttons.
Am I the only one with this issue?
FF and IE work fine.

Seems like a bad install.

Uninstall/reinstall.

I'm currently on chrome with 9 tabs open and can still minimize,

I'm just guessing.. maybe ur chrome is set not to narrow ur tabs even when you have quite a few open so the options in the upper right gets blocked.
