Chrome error - Whoa! Google Chrome has crashed

This error displays when Google Chrome unexpectedly shuts down.


If this problem appears, try to reopen Chrome. If it is a permanent problem, your browser user profile may be corrupted.





Try moving the Default subfolder from your User Data folder to see if that fixes the problem:

Go to Start menu > Run.
Enter one of the following directories in the text field, depending on your operating system:
Windows

Windows XP: %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\
Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default

Linux: ~/.config/google-chrome/Default

Click OK.
In the window that opens, rename the "Default" folder as "Backup."
Move the "Backup" folder from the "User Data" folder up one level to the "Chrome" folder.
