I have 2 iMacs and just installed OS X Lion (clean install) on one of them (let's call it iMac A). Did a time machine backup and restored that backup to my other iMac (B) to avoid installing twice. Everything works perfectly except that Google Chrome is extremely slow on iMac B (where the time machine backup was restored to). Opening a new tab is slow, opening a web page is slow etc. Safari on B is fast and works like on A, so it's just on B that Chrome is slow (and Chrome is my preferred browser, so I'd like to get it up to speed).

How to Delete Site Specific Cookies in Chrome for Mac Jul 2, 2016 - 10 Comments If you’re a Chrome web browser user, you may find yourself wanting to delete a specific website cookie (or cookies) from the browser. Delete Cookies In Chrome On Mac. The process for deleting cookies in Chrome on a Mac starts the same way as on Windows. To delete cookies in Chrome on a Mac, click the menu button (three vertical dots) and select “Settings“.
To solve the problem on B, I've tried uninstalling Chrome by dragging it to the Trashcan and emptying it. Then re-installg Chrome. But all my settings, extensions etc. are still there and it's just as slow as before.
Downloaded AppCleaner and did an uninstall with that, but still, when I re-install Chrome I have all my extensions etc. and it is as slow as before the re-install.
Does anyone know how to completely uninstall my Google Chrome browser so I can do a fresh install of it?

Delete this:
user>library>application support>google>chrome .. just delete the chrome folder since I think its the place where they keep the settings.

In addition to
user495470 's comment, do rm -rf ~/Applications/Chrome Apps , where plugins ('apps') are stored by the browser.
