Fix Google Chrome Crash Problem After Update – Resolved
I have almost migrated to Google Chrome browser. For last 2-3 months I am using it as default browser, as of now it has got a lot of useful extensions which add many new features while browsing. While I updated it from previous older version to new one, it started reacting as I had done something wrong to it!
Report like “ Chrome stopped Working “ became an usual on my PC. After few minutes of browsing, it suddenly crash and restart. In such situation the flow of work get disturbed. Not only this for some sites like orkut and twitter, while opening them blank or some coded page was appearing. Neither cleaning browsing data nor re-installation helped.
But fortunately yesterday I got a working solution which is quite easy, lets start with solution.

This really fixes the problem??
Yes, of-course this tweak fix crash problem. I have already tried this on 3 PCs and is successful.
actually what is that user data folder is for ? why are we deleting that ?
@Srivathsanuser data folder contains user's profile info.If you are facing the problem again then delete "Local State" file in user data folder…this can also solve your problem. This process will not uninstall the existing extensions.
still not working .. i follow your instructions, still crashin like this message "Whoah!Google Chrome has crashed. Restart now?"
@Google Chrome UserSometimes changing compatibility mode to Windows Vista also works fine. This is the case with few users who reported this tweak is working. Hope this will also work for you. And before changing compatibility, don't forget to remove others tweaks(above), which you did earlier.
Suddenly and maybe after I have tried to open a harmful page, The site opens many windows and closing them will be slower, I disconnected Net and Task-Manager Closed Google-Chrome, after that it started a situation, not to load anything and the Tabs then after about one minute crashes X-( , Gears page cant be opened, Download folder cant be opened,
Uninstalling and Deleting whole user data and Re-download and install it again Did not solve the problem
The Option -no-sandbox makes it works but it says the stability and Security Suffer !!!
where do you think the problem is, in Registry maybe?
I need to run Chrome normally.
Thanks in advance.
@Ausama
Remove this -no-sandbox trick and try installing fresh beta version from here: http://www.google.com/chrome/eula.html?extra=betachannel
Hope this will definitely help you out. And if you are using Internet Download Manager, then remove advanced integration setting from IDM, as this makes chrome unstable.
Thanks
thx…. it works perfectly
🙂
Wen i open twitter,orkut,flicker and some other sites. they wer not opening and showing some code.
i tried all the 3 tricks but no result.
When i tried changing target i found(target box is not valid, make sure that path and file was correct.)
@Srinivas
Please uninstall the older version of Chrome and then re-install it again. Use onsite-installer to install the latest version.
I used google chrome under the supervision of sandboxie but suddenly I always get this message “Whoah!Google Chrome has crashed. Restart now?” Now, I cannot use google chrome under sandboxie. What should I do? I tried the instructions above, but nothings happen. Thanks
this is something what googe must include in update cycles… not tweak by user
thank you very much. 1st solution helped!!
When I download Chrome, in the uninstall area it shows no size for Google Chrome. I am still getting error and none of the ideas work as I have yet to locate any of those type files or folders on my PC. I am using Windows 7
Hi Gower, you can use Standalone install version of Google Chrome for this purpose.
Dude, I rarely say this to anyone. U R GOD…..
After tirelessly searching for two days for a solution U r the one who helped me get my chrome back again and running. Can’t repay u for this bro.
Thanks a ton.
You are most welcome Gopi 🙂

Crashing fix
Open chrome in incognito window. Open settings and disconnect your google profile.
It worked for me.
Wow, that’s great!
Chrome Browser crashes with Windows Vista (only during initial launch):
we have to disable SUPERFETCH service from Vista services:
– START -> RUN -> SERVICES.MSC
– scroll down to locate SUPERFETCH service
– double-click mouse on SUPERFETCH
– choose STARTUP-TYPE to DISABLED
– click APPLY
– REBOOT the system
It is good to delete all the files from C:\Windows\Prefetch folder regularly. We can delete the Prefetch folder itself completely, after deleting the Prefetch\Readyboot folder.
Thats awesome RaoYv.
Thank you so much for the updated trick.
