Can not view or close open web pages - Galaxy S4

[robot_r]

Hi all,

I'm been having a problem for a while and still haven't found a fix.

On the S4 there is a tab in the right corner of the browser window that says how many pages are currently open. When you click on it, it should have a list of currently open webpages.

When I click on mine it does absolutely nothing!! I currently now have 50 pages open and am unable to close them

Any help would be appreciated.

Try disabling the app. Then re-enable it. That should fix it.

i am having the same issue with my S4 where do i go to disable and restore the app

I'm having the same problem but the option to disable the app doesn't work because when I go to do that the 'Disable' button is grayed out and can't be chosen. Any help would be very greatly appreciated. Thanks

@ robot 4, ski patrol, anyone.

What is the name of the app that you disabled / enabled?

Thanks!

I had this same problem. I went to settings-control panel- Google Search and cleared my cache. It's working now!

Do you have developer options enabled in settings??

Try unticking "do not keep activities"

Having this ticked is one possible cause
Hope this helps

Try going into Settings - More - Application Manager - All.
Scroll through the list and clear data and then force stop of both Chrome and Internet browser apps. It was the only solution for my problem.

I had the same problem. Click on the 3 dots, then settings and then turn off 'merge tabs & apps' works perfectly now. Hope this helps!
