Why is only Google Chrome loading websites while other browsers fail?

Hmm, sounds like a proxy or network config issue. Chrome might be ignoring some settings that other browsers are stuck on.

Check if you have a proxy enabled accidentally. Go to your browser settings and look for "proxy" or "network settings." If it’s set to "auto-detect," try turning it off.

Also, maybe run a quick scan with a tool like Malwarebytes just in case. Sometimes malware messes with browser settings.
