Highlighted Links Unreadable

@tm_glenn​ Thank You ;)  My highlights were very dark green with light blue writings that could barely be read... not sure why the difference in colors...?

I did go into the extensions but that didn't seem to be where the change took place.  For me, I opened Google Chrome and the Trend Micro icon was at the end of the url field.  I clicked on that and it wanted me to 'Install' (?) Trend Micro which I did (possibly install the Toolbar..?)   At that point, a pop-up appeared stating something about 'Highlights' so I clicked on that and was able to disable the 'Highlight rated links' which immediately took care of it!

So for those who are still having issues, I guess I'd recommend finding/ opening your Trend Micro Toolbar (which I still don't know how to do other than I went into my History ugh  Perhaps try this url/link:   chrome-extension://ohhcpmplhhiiaoiddkfboafbhiknefdf/js/common/index.html#entry=settings).  Once in the Trend Micro Toolbar, click on the Settings tab and there will be the 'Highlight rated links' option.  Turn it off/disable it and the links will no longer be highlighted.

Hope this helps!

Hi karizader,

Thanks for the update. I’m happy to help in any way I can.

Looking forward on more sharing of your best practices in the community.

@karizader​ Thank you, that URL worked for me (like you, I had not been able to find the toolbar settings any other way). At last my hyperlinks are legible again.

@lpg037​ Aaaahhhh... success... such a good feeling, right?!

Yes!!!!  That worked!!!  Thank you for the link...I couldn't find it on my Trend account.

@rogerjameson​,

Kindly ensure that your browser is up to date. I've tried to replicate the issue on my end using Google Chrome version 112.0.5615.138 and it is working as expected. In case you're using another browser, please check if your browser has the latest updates installed.

Also, please make sure that your Trend Micro program is updated to the latest version. To manually check for program updates, please follow the steps on the link provided below

Check Trend Micro Program Updates Manually

Let me know if it helps.

@tm_klariz​ I have been having the problem (until I disabled the highlighting as suggested by karizader above). My browser is up to date, however I do use dark mode so perhaps that might be relevant(?)

@tm_klariz​ Many thanks for your prompt response

I am running Google Chrome version 112.0.5615.138. 

I ran the manual upgrade of Trend Micro Maximum Security which then prompted me to run an upgrade to version 17.7.1903 - USOI267019.6491 and the Trend Micro Toolbar Extension shows I am running version 17.0.1634.0.  Viewing the taskbar and selecting Check for Program Updates indicates that all components are up to date. 

I then restarted my laptop as prompted however the issue in Gmail still remains. 

Can Trend Micro not enhance the product so that the text colour displayed in the url link in Gmail is either white  or yellow so it can stand out?

@tm_klariz​  I have just tested in Mozilla Firefox with the Highlight Rated Links enabled and that works fine.  All links are readable, so is this a Chrome related problem?  For the time being, I will make Firefox my default browser.

@rogerjameson 

Since it is working perfectly fine with Mozilla Firefox, may we know if you are using Dark Mode with it? Same thing with Google Chrome.

Have you tried to switch from dark to light mode and vice versa, then disable highlight rated links?
