    I think that the option of the instant search might be disabled. So you have to check that the option of the instant search is been dialed or not. If it is disabled then you better enabled in the option. To get on to it, you have to go to the Setting which is there on the right side of the search bar, so when you click on the setting icon you will get the list of option, in that you select the "Option" and in that you better check the instant search is been enable ya disabled. So you might be able to use the instant search and also you will be able to get search instantly.

    I would suggest that you better uninstall the browser and again install the browser on the system. I think there might be some problem with the installation due to which you are not getting the instant search working, if you will install again then you will be able to get the instant search working and also you might be able to search better.

    There is Instant Search option, which is there in the setting of the Google Chrome. I do not know the exact location of the option but it is there, you have to search for that option and you will be able to activate it. Well as you will activate it then the instant search will be working and also you might not the problem again in the Chrome. But for the option you have to search for it and also you have to enable the option, then only it will work. So go to the Setting and search for it.

    You have to enter the "--enable-match-preview" in the properties and then only it works, and this is not there in the option, so you have to do it in the properties of the chrome and then you will be able to get it done and also it will work for you.
