google-chrome 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 reinstallation helped.


But fortunately yesterday I got a working solution which is quite easy but you will loose all installed extensions and required to install them again. In case if you don't want to loose extensions, use FavBrowser software to backup and restore the extensions.

Solution to the problem:

1. Close Google Chrome browser, then.

2. For Windows XP, copy & paste this address in the address bar of Windows explorer and hit Enter :
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\
and for Windows 7/Vista copy-paste this address in address bar and hit enter:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\
google chrome
3. Now Delete the “ User Data “ folder permanently.

4. Start chrome browser and you see it with default settings.

Now the problem is gone, reinstall/restore the extensions according to your wish. Hope this will help you, if you have any problem then leave comments below.
