If you have been experiencing problems with your Internet browser, it may be necessary to reset the default settings.

1. Open Chrome and click the three dots in the top-right corner.
2. Select “Settings” from the drop-down menu.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Advanced.”
4. Under the “Reset and clean up” section, click “Restore settings to their original defaults.”
5. A pop-up window will appear; click “Reset settings” to confirm.
1. Open Firefox and click the three lines in the top-right corner.
2. Select “Options” from the drop-down menu.
3. Click the “Advanced” tab at the top of the page.
4. Under the “Reset” section, click “Reset.”
5. A pop-up window will appear; click “Reset Firefox” to confirm.
1. Open Edge and click the three dots in the top-right corner.
2. Select “Settings” from the drop-down menu.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Advanced.”
4. Under the “Reset” section, click “Reset.”
5. A pop-up window will appear; click “Reset” to confirm.
1. Open Safari and click the gear icon in the top-right corner.
2. Select “Reset Safari” from the drop-down menu.
3. Check the boxes next to the options you want to reset (typically all of them).
4. Click “Reset.” A pop-up window will appear; click “Reset” to confirm.
If you are still having problems with your browser after resetting the default settings, you may need to uninstall and reinstall the browser.
