      After installing the new MS Edge browser (which is Chromium-based), I still get the same errors in Edge. I do not get these errors in Firefox however. So the error seems to be attributed to the underlying chromium engine, and not isolated to the Chrome browser itself.

      This is a temporary fix. It worked for me for about three weeks, then I had to uninstall and reinstall Google Chrome, then perform these steps again. Now Chrome works again.
