    This problem popped up last week for no apparent reason. When I use Google to search (either from Google.ca or from the omnibox at the top), I get a blank page. The results are there but just invisible because if I move my cursor, I can click and go to a page. I've cleared my cache, history, everything and had no success. I have uninstalled and re-installed Chrome and it still shows "invisible" results. I am running Windows 10. Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

    I can only think of: disable hardware acceleration, Chrome > Settings > System > Use hardware acceleration when available.

    Have you checked for the latest graphics driver? You have the latest version of Chrome?

    I would try:

    Chrome > Settings > Advanced > Reset to reset all chrome settings to defaults.
    That failing, uninstall & reinstall chrome.
    That failing, post in the malware forum as something may be trying to hijack chrome search.

    Do you get the same problem if try searching at google.com?

    I do have the latest version of Chrome. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it. I have reset all setting to defaults and turning off hardware acceleration made no difference either. I get the same results no matter if I am on Google.com or Google.ca or if search via the omnibox.

    I believe this issue is being handled in the malware forum now.
