Dear Mila,
You need to clean browsing history in Google Chrome before you proceed for any further browsing.
CCleaner is one such program which will clear your browsing history.
I will advise you to follow these steps:
1. Click on this link to download it – https://filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/.
2. Click on the download this version option and install it,
3. Double Click on the CCleaner icon,
4. Your OS will prompt a separate window on the screen then click yes,
5. Place the button “Run Cleaner” available on extreme right at the bottom,
6. Don’t open other files or stop browsing till system is cleaned and till the status displayed by CCleaner as per the attached image.
7. Start your browsing.
Hello Mila James,
To solve this issue you can also visit another tetchy post. Visit that page and enrich your knowledge.
That’s only a timeout error. You normally get this when the website takes a very long time to respond. There are two reasons why you get this: first, if the website is experiencing heavy traffic and second, your internet connection is very slow. If you receive this message when accessing a particular website, try going to another website and see if the same problem happens.
If you don’t receive the message in other websites, it means that particular website has a problem like in the case when the website is under DDoS attack. But if the same message keeps appearing in any website you go to, check your connection. If you are connected to a router, restart your Wi-Fi router.
If the router has a power button, press it to turn it off then unplug it from the power for about ten to twenty seconds (10 – 20). Press any button on the router to drain any leftover power or to power cycle. After this, plug the router back to the power and turn it on.
