about:blank opens in Chromium when I type into the dash
Here's a rather odd problem I'm having. Whenever I open the dash and type into it, Chromium opens up and opens an "about:blank" tab for just about every letter I write into the dash. Why is it doing this and how do I stop it from doing this?
Fixed. Quite a weird bug. I had to re-login into Google in the "Online Accounts" settings under system settings.
The workaround is to turn "Include online search results" option off.
