Like many software packages, Google Chrome records the user’s preferences in a file stored on the computer’s hard drive. System cleanup activities, overly aggressive antivirus software and improper system shutdowns can cause this file to become corrupt, and even routine system cleanups can delete, move or rename the file. When Chrome becomes unable to read the preferences file, either because the file itself has become corrupt or because the browser cannot locate the file, Chrome will return an error message that it cannot recover the user’s settings.

When Google Chrome experiences problems reading its preferences file, the effects may vary depending on the severity of the problem. If Chrome locates the file and can read some settings, the browser may launch and allow the user to surf the World Wide Web. Some Chrome features like the skin that gives the browser its general appearance and the way Chrome handles certain scripts, though, may fail to work properly since the browser cannot recover how the user previously configured this behavior. In extreme instances when Chrome cannot locate the preferences file or cannot read it at all, the browser may fail to launch altogether.

To protect the Google Chrome preferences file and other important software components, users should take care to always perform a system shutdown before turning off a computer. In addition, users should periodically update antivirus software to ensure it recognizes Chrome’s files as legitimate application components. As an extra measure of security, the Google Chrome fan site ChromeFans.org recommends backing up critical Chrome data files located in the Chrome subfolder of the Application Data folder on Microsoft Windows-based computers or the Application Support subfolder of the Library folder on Apple Macintosh computers

In extreme cases when Google Chrome will not launch and users have no backup of the preferences file, it may become necessary to uninstall the browser. According to Google, Windows users can automatically uninstall Chrome by clicking the “Uninstall Google Chrome” selection under the Google Chrome option in the Start menu. Macintosh users with administrative rights can simply drag the Chrome application from the Applications folder to the trash. Depending on the user’s configuration and the Chrome installation, according to Google, a corrupt preferences file may cause difficulty for either a single user or all users on a particular computer. In some cases, users who can launch the Chrome application may be able to rebuild the browser’s preferences file by typing chrome://settings/browser in the address bar, making some basic selections and updating the settings.

1. Right-click on any icon that is located directly to the right of the address bar in Chrome to display a menu.
2. Select "Manage Extensions" to display a list of the extensions that you have installed.
3. Click on "Uninstall" next to any extension that you want to uninstall.

1. Navigate to your iGoogle page.
2. Select the gadget that you want to delete from the menu on the left.

Google periodically releases new updates to solve compatibility issues and errors, as well as to fix bugs. The most current version of Google Chrome must be installed on each of the computers that you wish to sync. To update Google Chrome, click on the wrench-shaped icon on the top left of the window and select the "Update Google Chrome" option.

You must enable syncing on each computer that you use Google Chrome on. Click on the wrench-shaped icon in the top left of the browser window and select the "Preferences" option, then click the "Personal Stuff" tab. Select the "Sync" menu and choose the "Set up sync" option. Sign in with your Google Account and choose which items you would like synced to your other Google Chrome browsers.

Google Chrome allows you to encrypt your saved data by creating a sync passphrase in addition to your Google Account password. The passphrase prevents bookmarks, passwords and other sensitive data from being automatically synced to another computer without your consent. If you have created a passphrase, enter it into Google Chrome on your Mac to complete the sync.

Google Chrome can only support syncing with one Google Account at a time, so the browser may not be syncing to your account because another account may be active on your computer. To reenter your information, click the wrench-shaped icon in the top left of the window and select "Preferences." Select the "Set up sync" option and sign in with your current Google Account credentials.

Your Internet connection may prevent your Mac from syncing with Google Chrome. Internet bandwidth refers to the amount of data you are sending and receiving on your Internet connection. Turn off any programs or devices that use an Internet connection and try to sync Google Chrome. You can check your bandwidth at Speedtest.net. Causes of poor bandwidth can include using Internet-based programs such as video games or music streaming services, active downloads or a virus on your computer. Other users in your home can also impact your bandwidth. You may also need to power cycle your equipment by shutting down your computers and unplugging your Internet modem and router for 10 seconds, then plugging them back in and restarting your computer. If problems persist, contact your Internet Service Provider to check the status of your connection.

To uninstall Google Chrome, you must be logged in to your operating system as the administrator. Guest accounts don't have sufficient rights to remove the browser. Google Chrome will not uninstall if one or more of the browser windows are still open. When you close the windows, in some cases, the browser may still be open in the background while you're using a different program. When you try to uninstall it, an error message will appear on the screen saying that the browser is still in use. Uninstalling Google Chrome will also be problematic if the browser freezes and becomes unresponsive.

If Google Chrome is frozen and unresponsive, it won't close until you force-close it. When you force-close the browser, all its setup files will be shut down allowing it to be removed. To force-close the browser, clicking the "Apple logo" and clicking the "Force Quit" option will bring up the Force Quit Applications window. A list of the currently running applications are displayed in this window. Clicking "Google Chrome," clicking the "Force Quit" button and then clicking the same button again on the confirmation dialog box will shut down the application.

After closing Google Chrome, you can proceed to uninstall it from the Applications window. To open the Applications window, click "Finder" on the dock to bring up a new Finder window. From there, click "Macintosh HD" under Devices and click the "Applications" folder to display a list of installed applications. Locate the Google Chrome icon and drag it to the Trash bin on the dock to automatically remove it from your computer. In addition, dragging the Google Chrome icon from the dock will automatically remove it from the dock.

If you're still unable to remove Google Chrome, restarting your computer will reboot the operating system and can help solve the uninstall problem. Updating your operating system by clicking the "Apple logo" and clicking "Software Update" can solve the problem and improve your operating system's performance. If the problem persists, contacting Google support is necessary

A firewall is an application that can block certain programs and web addresses from connecting with your computer. A firewall doesn't block data transmitted from your computer, but rather prevents certain incoming connections from sending data to your computer. If a Web browser like Google Chrome is added to your computer's firewall, it will prevent Chrome from being able to access websites.

Firewalls are commonly found in either antivirus software or in an operating system's network security applications. For example, Windows 7 and Mac OS X users have firewall programs built into the operating system to provide basic security. You may also have additional firewalls on your computer if you've installed other anti-virus or network security software, such as SonicWALL or McAfee.

Firewall applications often open a dialog box when you're about to connect with a previously unknown server; this dialog box asks whether you want to allow or not allow the connection. This pop-up box can appear many times while using a browser like Google Chrome to navigate the Internet. Some users report accidentally blocking Chrome because they choose the "Block" or "Don't Allow" option from the pop-up in an attempt to prevent the pop-up from returning every few minutes.

To unblock Google Chrome, go to the block list in your firewall application and remove Google Chrome from the list. Make sure to check the network security applications available through your computer's operating system as well as any additional anti-virus programs that you've installed.
