    Two days in a row, Chrome quits working?


    Hi everyone.

    I just had Chrome quite working again, this is the second time in two days. Yesterday I had the same thing, I reinstalled and it started working again after going through getting all my links back and syncing.

    Not it has done the same thing again.

    I have run malware scans on everything and it comes up clean.

    Any idea what's going on?

    I'm using Edge right now and it's working. Could this have anything to do with uninstalling Flash?

    - "quit working" meaning it want launch, slow, freezes ?

    - Is Chrome properly updating ?

    - Chrome has Flash installed within. What was your need for Flash ?

    - Disable your Extensions on Chrome one by one to see if one may be the issue.

    - Check Event Viewer and Reliability History for any entries indicating problems.

    - May want to try another Reset/Reinstall

    Hi
    Just came back to say that I found that it was not crashing as I thought but just becoming invisible but still running.
    Once I found that, I could force it to close using Task Manager and it would reopen normally again.
    I don't know why it was closing and was refusing to reopen the screen but it seems to have quit doing it now.

    Great news Mike.

    If it happens again, double check using the tutorial below to see if the windows may just be off-screen somehow and needs dragging back on-screen.
