Desktop icons Keep on flickering

Asked By Joseph H Higuchi 70 points N/A Posted on - 02/14/2015

I have an Acer Aspire t180 laptop pc with a 2 GB RAM and running on 32 bit Windows 7. I normally use Google chrome as my browser and whenever I open it, the desktop icons begin flickering for a while before they return to regular. I have tried to restart my computer severally and when I do, I see there is a processes still running but then it closes quickly. I use AVG antivirus but it has not so far detected anything. Could this be a virus? How can I eliminate it without losing my data?

Desktop icons Keep on flickering

Hello. Your computer isn't the issue here, it is the Google Chrome browser. Before the recent update, Chrome had a bug causing the desktop icons to continuously refresh while using the browser. All you need to do is update Google Chrome with the new version Google Chrome Stable Version – 40.0.2214.91.
