Hi, please try this method, it works for me:
How to disable efficiency mode in task manager? Windows efficiency mode is making apps like Google Chrome unusable.

I have the same issues. They immediately began after updating my windows device to the latest update. Unfortunately, nothing will load in google chrome, including the settings and history tabs.
Have a nice day!

2023-04-10T01:05:48+00:00 I'm having this same issue!!
I'm on a desktop as well so I have no reason to have an efficiency mode, unless that efficiency mode was only active while I was tabbed out.
My running theory for why this is happening and why its only happening to chrome is because microsoft is trying to turn people away from chrome and towards edge. Which is really not a very good look for the company.
I don't know why we aren't able to just turn off efficiency mode on the main google chrome box in task manager instead of having to turn it off on every sub-process.
Ridiculous.
There better be a fix for this soon because this is unacceptable.

2023-04-10T10:24:46+00:00 Can confirm that efficiency mode bug happens on Edge too, not just Chrome in my case.... although I only feel the lagginess when using resource-intensive websites
Only Brave Browser doesn't get cursed with Efficiency Mode bug... I wonder why. Please fix this bug Microsoft!
