Bookmark icons disappeared in Chrome

[Norton]

Open task manager and stop Chrome and all of it's processes, restart and see if the browser rectifies the default book marks.
Have you attempted to fix corrupt files? At the command prompt (run as Admin) type "scf /scannow" it will identify and attempt to repair any corrupt files found.

Says that no programs were found.

Hmm?.. that's beyond odd as I just downloaded it both on my laptop and my mobile device.
Not sure what to recommend now.
Just noticed Norton's suggestion, that is what I would try at this point.

I have attempted and am doing so right now.

Mike: Just a thought. Have you tried to access your Chrome account using another PC. If your bookmarks where synced they may be still there for viewing?
You may want to try uninstalling/reinstalling Chrome

Hi Mikaela,

a bit drastic but could you remove Google Chrome and then re-install it?, that might solve the problem for you?, you may have to go through the setting up process again though?.

 

[Mikaela Arsenault]

So this is interesting. The icons are showing up in Google Chrome Beta, but not Chrome and Canary.

Sounds like there's something doing the funky chicken within your Chrome installation, if they are showing fine in the Beta version then I think I would uninstall Chrome and use the clean up tool I suggested earlier and reinstall.
That is if you truly need the favicons that badly, or simple use the Beta version..mine come and go in Firefox, kinda bugged me for awhile then never noticed.

What cleanup tool?

 

[Mikaela Arsenault]

Now Google Chrome and Chrome Canary are freezing.

What cleanup tool?

The Chrome clean up tool link that I had posted earlier..run it prior to reinstalling.

[Mikaela Arsenault]

I’m using Internet Explorer for the time being.

Thank you.

Now Google Chrome isn’t showing the bookmarks at all, but Canary and Beta are.

Michaela, I have no idea at this point as it makes no sense as to why Beta is showing them but regular Chrome is not.
By default Chrome is set to auto sync "everything" which would undoubtedly include all the bookmarks, so unless you purposely disabled sync ( which I'm positive you didn't ) I'm at a complete loss for an explanation unfortunately.
I will defer to others on here for more insight and suggestions... Sorry I couldn't help out!

It’s fine. And my name is Mikaela by the way.
