Google Chrome Help Feed

Same issue.  Today I tried to upgrade/download to latest version, but am having trouble doing so ('download server not available)

Basically, I open Chrome and no matter what links I click on, it crashes about 2 minutes later. I just did a couple tests by letting it sit, open, without clicking on anything and it still crashes the very second I click in the window and go to a webpage other than the homepage. I even tried bringing up the history and sure enough, 5 seconds later it crashed. Basically, the more links I click on, the faster it crashes.

I am also facing the same issue from today. Till yesterday night it was working fine. Today morning when i started the browser, it is crashing in 2 minutes no matter what links i click on. I tried re-installing but of no use. My Laptop is Windows Vista.

I have taken a snapshot of the message window, chrome shows when it is crashed, but i don't know how to attach the file in this post. Anyways the pop-up windows shows the error message as,
" Whoa! Google Chrome has crashed. Restart now ?" with 2 buttons "OK" and "Cancel".

I tried clicking "Ok" button and "Cancel" button. But the browser crashes after 2 minutes again.

I haven't faced this issue till yesterday. Also i checked if there is any updates installed in my system recently. There was none.

Please post if there is any solution.

For all your google chrome shortcuts, try this. add " --no-sandbox" everything within those quotes to the end of of the shortcuts link.

the  use of --user-data-dir=c:\foo works in preventing crashes as where the --no-sandbox does not.. but i dont like the fact that i loose all my browsing history every time i close out of the browser... any further help to fixing it and keeping regular performance would be nice

I have been having a continuous crash every time I visit http://www.garagegames.com/products/torque-2D (may not be exact like because of the crash I cannot see to where I am going on the website. However is is the garagegame website) once this crash happen chrome will not look at ANY web page and will just crash. I have to Rename my 'Default' folder to 'Backup', or get rid of it

I found the 'Default' folder here Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\

Update.. it only happens when I login to garagegames.com.. the second I log it it shows me the webpage and asks if I want to save the password no matter what I do say yes click the x ignore it the next click I do in chrome crashes it

I wish I could edit but through my ever persistant snooping I found out 2 things.

I can reproduce the crash from this link http://www.garagegames.com/products/download/111 just download the first demo and go to save it and chrome will crash. Second I found out how to save all my settings.
Seem the restart is controled be the preference file located here: C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default

It will look something like this

{
   "default_search_provider": {
      "id": "2",
      "name": "Google",
      "search_url": "{google:baseURL}search?{google:RLZ}{google:acceptedSuggestion}{google:originalQueryForSuggestion}sourceid=chrome&ie={inputEncoding}&q={searchTerms}",
      "suggest_url": "{google:baseSuggestURL}search?client=chrome&output=chrome&hl={language}&q={searchTerms}"
   },
   "download": {
      "directory_upgrade": true
   },
   "geoid_at_install": 244,
   "profile": {
      "exited_cleanly": false,
      "id": "not-signed-in",
      "name": "",
      "nickname": ""
   },
   "session": {
      "urls_to_restore_on_startup": [  ]
   }
}

All I have to do to stop the crashing is change the "exited_cleanly": false, to "exited_cleanly": true,

This way I get to keep my settings and I know I cannot yet use chrome on that site.

@Mohamed: where is the error log I have check everywhere I can think of and still I cannot find an error log

Ok I found the EnableLocalCrashDumps.reg but here is the wierd thing. I enable the crash dumps and no crash dump build. I notice that where the instruction states the file should be I get nothing. I crash everytime I try the download. I build the directory CrashReports and I crash about 1 out of 10 times. Still no crash report at all. I disable the crash dumps and I get crash 8 out of 10 time. So right now I am running with crash report enabled but nothing is being generated during the crash

I've been facing the same problem since some 6 hours continuously - same as K.G. described that here:

The ironic thing is that even when I click to close google chrome, the latter still crashes saying "Whoa! Google Chrome has crashed. Restart now?"

I installed Chrome again and it worked!. I don't know what went wrong in between to crash the browser continuously. I had tried reinstalling the browser 3 times, 3rd time it worked.

That prob was solved after I restarted my OS and re-launched Google Chrome back!!

think shockwave player problem.. ..reinstall the flash player and also google chrome.. ..restart ur sys. ...and iam sure it ll stop crashing.. ..

Hey. I have an issue with the Shockwave Flash plugin (in all browsers: Firefox, Chrome, IE, Opera...) I am able to watch Youtube and other videos fine (at least till now) but I recently tried recording a video on Facebook (Facebook has an option to record and add videos on your Friends' walls) and I got an error saying: The following plug-in has crashed: Shockwave Flash. I also got the following error report:

Add-ons: {7694c49c-9fbd-11dc-8314-0800200c9a66}:3.0.2,{972ce4c6-7e08-4474-a285-3208198ce6fd}:3.0.6

I tried uninstalling and re-installing shockwave, as well as the browser, but the problem still persists. I am using Vista SP 1, and Adobe Flash Player 10 plugin (and Adobe Shockwave Player 11) It's really frustrating so any help would be good.

Thanks a lot !

What's the version of Shockwave that doesn't experience the Shockwave Flash Crash error thing?
Version 8? 9?
Thx

Yep, all the time : (

I found out I was using an OLD VERSION. Chrome 1.0.x wasn't updating itself, nor was it checking and reporting to me that it's wayyyyy outdated.

Updated to 2.x hope this minimizes further crashes :-/

OK,.....EVERYONE WHO USES A COMPUTER...!!! >>> ....We ALL...Hate to HAVE TO ~Buy programs off the I~net to HELP OUR Computers RUN Better and without PROBLEMS...RIGHT !!!??? ...BUT unfortunately ITS a MUST in todays world of Computing.

I tried both deleting my User Profile file, and changing that code, and neither worked. And as was said before, the more links you click on, the faster it crashes. It has been very annoying, because it was working fine for the several months since it came out. All of a sudden it started crashing last night while I was in the middle of doing some research, and I lost the pages I had open. I hope someone can resolve this issue, because Chrome has been by far the most stable, and the fastest of all the internet browsers that I have used.

Chrome had been working great then CRASH!!!  This stated just a couple days ago, but has happened quite often since then.  I don't know much about what causes this, I only hope that the experts at google can get the problem fixed quickly.  Until then, I'm forced to use good old IE for most of my surfing.

I think I managed to get it working. All I did was clear all my history, cache, temp files for all time. I kept my passwords of course. After I restarted Chrome, it works fine. Im still keeping an eye out for it, you never know when it will crash again. Oh and I updated my flash just in case, so that might have helped.

I was able to solve the problem by uninstalling Chrome, removing the residual application files and reinstalling. Crude, but effective.
