FIX Recaptcha Not Working in Google Chrome [Tutorial]
1,046FIX Recaptcha Not Working in Google Chrome [Tutorial]
Several Chrome issues are having difficulties using reCAPTCHA from a Google Chrome browser. Most affected users are reporting that the Recaptcha shows initially but when the user clicks on it the whole Recaptcha just fades away. Upon reloading the web page, affected users receive a message warning them that “Your computer or network may be sending automated queries.”
We investigated this particular issue by looking at various user reports and the repair strategies that affected users deployed to get the issue resolved. Based on what we gathered, there are several fairly common scenarios that will trigger this particular error message.
Chrome is not updated to the latest version – One of the most common reasons why this error occurs is that of an outdated Chrome version. ReCaptcha will actively look at the browser version before allowing you access. This is applicable to all browser versions, not just Chrome. In this case, the solution is to update Google Chrome to the latest version.
Corrupted Chrome browser profile – Several affected users have reported that for them, the issue went away indefinitely as soon as they forced Google Chrome to create a new browser profile. This step can be done manually by renaming the existent browser profile (Default). Consult Method 2 for more details.
VPN or Proxy service is not playing well with reCaptcha – As some users have pointed out, there are some VPN and Proxy services that will create this problem with reCaptcha V2 verification. In most cases, the best solution is to contact the VPN/proxy provider support or move on to a different provider.
Computer’s IP address is in a banned range – The issue might occur if you are unlucky enough to be granted an IP placed in a banned range that Captchas’s database is aware of. If you’re working with a dynamic IP, one solution would be to force your ISP to grant you a different IP (one that is hopefully not in a banned range).
