So I just turned the computer on tonight, and I'm not sure if Google Chrome did an update or something?  But there is a black circle in the top left corner of the search bar, and I hate that it's there.  Does anyone know how to get rid of it??  Thanks

That is where Chrome would ordinarily display the padlock icon (to indicate you are using HTTPS) or the "not secure" warning (if you aren't using HTTPS).

 

It looks like you have a custom theme installed, so my first thought is that there might be a bug in the theme which is interfering with displaying this icon. Try switching back to the default theme and see if that fixes it.

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.
