Google Chrome Window Resize Not Working

Why can't I resize the Google Chrome window?


After restarting my mac the bottom of the Chrome window is way below the view of the screen so I can't change its height. I've tried 'alt + shift + click' dragging the sides of the window but that doesn't work. I've also tried 'Window > Zoom' but that only fits it to screen, and it can't get any smaller.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Hello kipkip1,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!


We understand from your post that you are not able to resize the Chrome window. With Chrome open, click View from the menu in the upper left corner of your Mac. Then see if it says Enter Full Screen or Exit Full Screen. If it says Exit Full Screen, click that and it should then allow you to adjust the size of the Chrome window.


If this does not resolve the issue, try adjusting the window while your Mac is in safe mode. This article will provide you with steps on how to restart your Mac into safe mode:
