How to Fix Google Chrome Crash Problem?



If your browser user profile is corrupted, then this might result in crashing Google Chrome as soon as you open the browser.

To fix Google Chrome Crash problem all you need to do is to can create a new user profile to replace the broken one.

Follow these steps to create new user profile:

1.Exit Google Chrome completely.

2.Go to the Start menu > Run.



3.Enter one of the following directories in the text field, then press OK.
  • Windows XP: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data

  • Windows Vista: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data

  • Windows 7: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data
4.Locate the folder called "Default" in the directory window that opens and rename it as "Backup default."
 
 
 
Try opening Google Chrome again. A new "Default" folder is automatically created as you start using the browser. You can transfer your old browser information to your new user profile; however, it is not recommended to do so since a part of your old profile was corrupt. You can transfer your old bookmarks to your new user profile by copying the "Bookmarks.bak" file from the "Backup default" folder to your new "Default" folder.

Is there a safemode in Google chrome ?

Google Chrome doesn't have this feature, but you can open an incognito window to temporarily disable extensions.

Type "chrome -incognito" without quotes in run window and hit enter.
