Fixing Chrome Freezing

I put my Windows 10 machine to sleep when I’m done for the day. For the past month or so, after awaking from sleep, Chrome would take forever (at least 2 minutes but usually a lot more) to refresh or open a web page. Restarting always resolved the problem but that eliminates the benefit of sleep mode. I’d Googled this issue before and hadn’t found any useful results but I tried again yesterday and found a suggestion that worked: turn off automatically detecting proxy settings. To get at that setting, click Start, type “settings” to bring up Windows Settings, choose Network & Internet, choose Proxy, and turn off Automatically Detect Settings.
