Sometimes it turns out that for many PC users Google Chrome does not open. Quite often, the reasons can be inexplicable - in the evening everything was fine, and now "glitches" are occurring. So let's figure out why Google Chrome does not start and how to deal with this situation.
Why does it happen
Computer problems are fairly common. They often include a variety of problems with web browsers. "Google Chrome", "Mozilla", "Explorer" - it doesn’t matter what program you have installed. The main thing is that the "glitches" do not bypass any option.
So, let's try to figure out why Google Chrome does not open. The most common hindrance at startup is an antivirus program. Absolutely any. Also, viruses and various installed programs can cause problems. Let's look at each reason individually to find out why Google Chrome doesn’t open.
Antivirus
No matter how strange it may sound, antivirus programs can not only serve the benefit of the user, but also to the detriment. This happens because many people don’t look at what pages and addresses they go to. If you click on a malicious link that does not contain trojans and worms, then the situation may not be very pleasant - when you restart the browser will stop working. More precisely, the process will start to run, but there will be no “picture”.
In this case, you need to check the system for viruses, then turn off the "antivirus" and try to start your browser. If this does not help, completely uninstall the web program and reinstall it. Everything should work.
Sometimes the reason that Google Chrome does not open can be the Windows Firewall. He will perceive the browser as a prohibited process, and then block it. In this case, turn off the antivirus and firewall and try to get started.
Viruses
A fairly frequent answer to the question of why Google Chrome does not start is the presence of viruses on the computer. It’s good if they don’t devour your system, but only get to the browser. Although an unpleasant phenomenon, but tolerable.
If you suspect that your computer does not start Google Chrome, first of all, launch an antivirus program. Which one to use is up to you. Nevertheless, we would recommend you Doctor Web - it can easily be accessed and used without effort. In addition, this “antivirus” has the so-called free demo versions that help detect “infection” on the computer. In this case, you do not have to buy the final product.
So, when you have decided which antivirus program to use, run it. During the checks, leave the computer alone - close all programs and games, including browsers (if any work and are open). When the computer completes the scan, cure all the detected files that cannot be cured - delete.
Be careful - important system data can be found among malware. Therefore, before you start working with antiviruses, save all the important data that you need. So, just in case.
Restart your computer after scanning and disinfection have completed. After that, try to run Google Chrome. If everything went unsuccessfully, completely remove the browser with all the bookmarks and other data, and then reinstall it. Everything should return to normal.
Restart
Of course, if all the previous methods were useless, there is only one way out - reinstalling the system. Of course, you can roll back. However, for all the problems, as the system administrators say, "there is one cure - take down Windu and everything."
So, when you decide on this difficult step, find the Windows installation disc. Before that, write down important personal data in advance so as not to lose them. Insert the installation disk into the computer and wait for it to start.
Select "Install Windows Operating System". A window will open before you to choose a method for carrying out the process - a "clean" and a "surface" installation. In order to get rid of worries about why Google Chrome does not start, it is better to choose the first option. Then, using simple steps, format the hard drive and select the Windows installation path. Wait for the process to complete. Restart your computer about 3 times - do not be alarmed. Then install the browser and use it as before. Now you know what to do if Google Chrome does not open.
