Annoying Chrome issue

A

I've used Chrome for many years and it always loaded very quickly via the taskbar, but during the last four weeks or so the hourglass symbol appears for about 5-6 seconds every time I try to run it. The same thing happens whenever I open a new tab or instance of Chrome via the desktop. I've run MSSE many times but nothing is detected, so wondering what's causing this.
 
If it were mine to do, I would start by saving bookmarks and then uninstall, cleanup, re-install, & restore bookmarks. Ccleaner does a good job.
