I'm not a Chrome guru - but . . .

Creating an additional profile in Chrome is simple, once you realise that a Chrome Profile is synonymous with a Chrome Person. Click your dot (top right - mine is green) click Add, select an icon if you must, enter a name - done.

You'll lose all your baubles and bangles but it should be enough to let you see if that's where your problem lies. If the problem is still apparent I'm out of ideas - apart from nuke Chrome and reinstall, or try another Browser - e.g. Edge.

If the new profile is 'okay', you could try copying your existing profile into the new one (google 'copy chrome profile' - it's done in the file manager) but that is likely to copy the problem. So, it might be better to redo it in bits - e.g. export bookmarks from old profile and import into new one etc.
