Google Chrome’s New Tab Page by default shows 8 thumbnails for most visited sites, users on Chrome 44 has a strange experience where New Tab Page is only showing 6 thumbnails instead of 8. Don’t worry! Nothing wrong with your Chrome, it’s a bug! Will be fixed in Chrome 45.

Chrome 44 bug: New Tab Page shows only 6 thumbnails
There is also another bug that has been reported in v44 where last thumbnail column doesn’t appear when zoom level for NTP is set to 90%, ensure NTP is not zoomed for you and press ‘Ctrl+0’ to see it restores all thumbnails. This issue will also be resolved in the next version.
thanks for the heads up mate , glad i’m not the only one having this :)
Google is going down the drain… As fast as they rose, so shall they fall.
@Accrd and Me
Seems the issue has been fixed, my new tab page now showing 8 thumbnails before and after the update. Can you guys confirm.
yea seems to work fine now
and its ALCRD ( one “L” one “C” )
For a couple days it worked, just not 08/24/15 at 8:15pm PST i opened a new tab, to find only 6 thumbnails yet again…
TDJ you’re not alone, I too noticed that on my NTP today, its not constantly showing 8 thumbnails, I say stop worrying about it as we said it will be fixed in next version.
same thing again just opened Chrome and 6 thumbnails :/
Really stupid bug. I just wasted an hour going through the setting…
This issue was already fixed. 21/8/2015
I just update to 44.0.2403.157 m and it’s still not resolved for me.
Pablo, wait for Chrome 45 to fix that.
