I'm facing a really strange issue. The issue is when I type the URL microsoft.com in my chrome it redirects me to google.com.

I have tried to clear browser cache, clear everything, uninstall/re-install Chrome, clear User_Data folder but nothing helps.

It's redirecting even I after I've set network to offline via inspector window.

When I see the network traffic for microsoft.com, for the Request URL (GET) is getting Status Code: 307 Internal Redirect (from disk cache).

Note: It works fine in Incognito mode.

Since it works fine in Incognito mode, this means that the problem is caused by an extension.

To find the extension, enter the following URL : chrome://extensions/, disable some extensions and restart Chrome and check. Continue until you find the extension that is responsible.

Note very well the source of the extension - if it is part of some installed product, that product should probably be uninstalled.

I also suggest to do deep antivirus scans with your antivirus and also with Malwarebytes.

  • Does it work in another browser (Firefox, Edge) ?

    Seems like an extension that is hidden from the extensions list, or something that is outside of Chrome. Does it happen when booting in Safe Mode with Network?

    I had the same issue with other domains. In my case, although it worked in incognito mode, it wasn't any extension. Clearing cache fixed it.

    I just had this same issue. A few different internal sites would load in Edge, but not Chrome. They were getting 307 Internal Redirects to an https:// version which did not exist. Worked in incognito, and worked in regular mode after clearing cache. What in the heck was in my cache, and how did it get there? I'm a new employee and had never visited these sites before the first time they failed.
