I am on macOS 15.2.
I suppose I one way or the other clicked on “could not uncover” units on the native community for Chrome. Now Chrome can not open any web site on my native community and studies “deal with unreachable”. I can nonetheless entry all of those websites in Safari and even Chrome if I exploit my VPN.
By analysis, I discovered Settings -> Privateness & Safety -> Native Community -> Chrome.
Chrome seems there 9 occasions, however the slider is enabled for every occasion.
I am stumped right here. Is there something I can do?
Replace: Effectively, I am making some progress right here.
If I open the Chrome app instantly (“Present Bundle Contents” -> “Contents” -> “MacOS” -> “Google Chrome”) and alter the identify of the executable, every thing works superb. Apparently, this provides yet one more entry to the “native community” tab below privateness and safety. Analysis turned up that one other entry is added should you ever replace Chrome whereas it’s working.
Sadly, altering the app package deal identify has no impact.
Subsequently, it appears honest to make the next assumptions:
- My privateness/safety profile for Chrome is one way or the other damaged, because it has “native community entry” completely disabled, irrespective of the place I put the slider.
- I am unable to get the “Permit Entry” dialog to seem once more, so any app referred to as “Google Chrome” has native community entry completely disabled.
- Reinstalling Chrome does not assist.
- Each Chrome and MacOS have hassle recognizing {that a} new model of Chrome is just not a brand new app. This results in many duplicate entries.
Sadly, there does not appear to be an answer in the meanwhile:
- It does not appear potential to reset “Privateness and Safety” in its entirety.
- It does not appear potential to take away the safety profile from Chrome.
