Chrome Download Stuck At Seconds Left
This post looks at how to clear the cache in Google's Chrome web browser, which you will need to do if you are experiencing the 'waiting for cache' error. Whenever I download something in chrome, the speed deteriorates to 0 B/s. The ISP promises me a speed of 0.5 mbps, and web-browsing is normal. But all downloads slowly drop to 0.

Since I reinstalled Windows 10 onto my new 480GB SSD, booting alongside Windows 7, Chrome has been acting super strange. This is annoying due to the fact that I've used Chrome since XP without a hitch until now. I've read that some people have issues with it regarding the April Creator update (although the issue is mostly non-existent for April Creator users it seems), but I'm not downgrading back to 10240.
The main issue it has is that it seems to take an absurdly long time to load any webpage I try to visit, having the 'establishing secure connection...' message in the bottom left for a long while. Sometimes, the page will load, but usually Chrome comes back with, 'Couldn't load [website here], it took too long to respond.' This happens even with google.com or Google Drive, their own services. As a troubleshooting method, here's what I've tried to no avail:
-Reinstalling Chrome, multiple times

-Disabling all of my extensions
Just to be sure it wasn't my machine, I tried another browser, Edge. It works as expected. That's what I'm using at this very moment. Also tried IE 11 and it has no noticable issues.
Before making this thread, I looked at other threads here to see if anyone else had the same issues. I came across this one here: Internet browsers all come up with 'Can't reach page' It gave a couple of CMD commands in order to possibly fix a similar issue:
ipconfig /flushdns
(Clear the dns cache)

netsh int ip reset (reset ip settings)

netsh winsock resetI gave those a try and Chrome seemed to work almost 100%. But after I restarted, it was back to 'establishing secure connection...' again. I have not tried Firefox yet. If anyone could give some insight here, I would VERY much appreciate it. Edge isn't bad, but I'd like to continue using Chrome if possible.Thanks,
