Chrome Causing cursor to spin frequently

[DeadlyMuffinCat]

Hello ,

When using chrome it will sometimes have the spinning wheel on my mouse cursor pop up randomly, it usually happens when i open a new tab, but it seems to have gotten more frequent lately.  I have run several scans using windows defender and malware bytes and they do not detect anything.  I've narrowed it down to chrome as it doesn't happen if I use edge.  Its more of an annoyance than anything I suppose, but any thoughts on how to fix this?

Have you tried to reinstall Chrome or disable some extensions you use? Spinning icon means its loading something. And when its on every tab opening, even when empty, Chrome loads something for new tab.

Thank you for the tip, I tried reinstalling chrome and that did nothing, but it seems it was google docs causing the frequent spinning, ever since i disabled the google docs and google docs offline extension it has gone back to normal, occasionally spinning when i would load a new page but its much faster and only lasts a split second.
