Chrome pages become unresponsive mostly when the browser or your computer gets overloaded. The most common triggers include heavy JavaScript execution, insufficient RAM, corrupted cache files, conflicting extensions, or malware.
Community troubleshooting generally points to a few specific causes and fixes:
Resource Exhaustion: If your system runs out of memory or your CPU hits 100%, scripts on the webpage will freeze. You can press Shift + Esc to open Chrome's built-in Task Manager and end resource-heavy tabs or extensions.
Corrupted Cache:Over time, corrupted temporary data can cause pages to stall. You can fix this by clearing your browser's history and cache in your
Chrome Privacy Settings.
Extension Conflicts: Poorly coded or outdated extensions often interfere with webpage scripts. Try disabling them via your Chrome Extensions Manager to see if the error stops.
Outdated Browser: Running an older version of Chrome can lead to script execution bugs. Ensure you are running the latest version by checking the Chrome Update Page
