S8+ Chrome Navigation Buttons Moved To Bottom???

[usmcsilver]

Wife's phone.

Latest Chrome version (same as mine on my S9+) and both of us have the same version of Android (9).

Here is what she is dealng with, and she HATES it. She can't figure out what made it change (except for a recent security update???).

Hers is a Verizon phone. My phone is an unlocked one, but both are on the Verizon network, yet mine still has the normal Chrome menu.

Thanks!

That will do somewhat of a temporary fix.

Once all apps are closed, and Chrome is restarted, it goes back to having the stupid bar at the bottom.

It says to press the "Overview" button, but I don't know what/where that is.

I've done a force stop, and gone to settings-device care-memory-clean now, and when I start Chrome, yet again...the toolbar is at the bottom.

If it is referring to the app overview button (bottom left android menu thing that shows all open apps), I can swipe it away there, but, yet again, menu remains at bottom.

Yup. Done.

But, it doesn't work.

It'll all work fine until everything is cleared, but upon restart, the dang menu returns.

Your not opt in beta for chrome?

Ok.

Went to the PlayStore, uninstalled. Then hit open to test it. Worked fine. Did the update box, and everything continues to work fine.

Appreciate the assistance.
