Hi. Here are a few other things to look at:

- Check the shortcut's "Properties". Does it specify the correct URL on the command line?
- What happens if you launch chrome.exe from a cmd prompt with a URL on the command line? For example:

C:\>"%programfiles(x86)%\google\chrome\application\chrome.exe" https://nytimes.com

- Do you have any administrative policies set that control the startup pages (check chrome://policy)?

Thanks.

As there isn't any Feedback from reporter since long time, hence closing it and marking it as Won't Fix.

@Reporter: Feel free to file a new one if the issue is seen again. Removing Needs-Bisect label to it.

Thanks!
