Hi, and thanks for reaching out. My name is Miguel O., Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue!

Greg Carmack Independent Advisor posted a solution to a user who had a similar issue:

"Make sure Flash Player is working and latest by running this tool: https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html.

Reset Chrome following this guide:

https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-reset-google-ch...

If that doesn't fix it then Reinstall Chrome:

Right click empty area of Task bar to open Task manager.

If necessary show More Details

Under "Processes," look for "Google Chrome" or "chrome.exe."

Click it, then click End process.

Then go into C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files (86) to find the Google folder and delete the Chrome Folder.

You may need to Take Ownership first using this handy tool that will install to your right click mouse button: https://www.askvg.com/add-take-ownership-option...

On the View tab of File Explorer then tick Hidden Files, open C:\Program Data to do the same.

Go into Start > Windows Settings (gear icon) > Apps > Apps & Features > Google Chrome > Uninstall.

Restart PC to reinstall Chrome from fresh download here: https://www.google.com/chrome/

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
