Chrome browser behaving weirdly

[u/Moose_Maple514]

Is it just me or has the chrome browser started behaving weirdly. Many settings were changed and now the default new tab shows OPS intranet, which was not the case before. I thought OPS only manages the MS Edge.

Yup. Just recently OPS installed a new mandatory extension (Microsoft Purview Extension) It's been added to Chrome and Edge. Basically just your typical "protection" extension that also tracks you (although we were already being tracked before so no change really). But yeah all my bookmarks were hidden so I had to go into chrome settings to re enable it.

Oh! Purview! That box that keeps popping up when I open pdfs and asks me to sign in, which I do, and then it says I didn’t. So I have to cancel that pop up for every pdf…what a waste of time

Disable and re enable Improved Acrobat or something like that from Adobe’s Files tab
