Helped a friend fix an issue with Chrome. Chrome was fine one and not the next. Chrome would open but wouldn’t finish loading a page. I fixed a Chrome issue before so I tried the following. Here were the steps I took.
- Deleted the user profile.
- Re-install Chrome.
Neither one of these fixes worked. Here are the steps I took that got Chrome working again.
- Uninstalled Chrome.
- Uninstalled Java ( version 6, current version 8).
- Ran CCleaner to fix Registry.
- Rebooted machine.
- Ran CCleaner to fix Registry again.
- Re-installed Chrome and everything worked again.
I hope this helps someone out.

Another user in Google Forums posted this solution.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\
Application into your windows “Search programs and files” box (Windows picture in bottom left of your screen). Right click on the Chrome icon and in the settings I had to check a box that made it compatible with the version of Windows I was using. It worked immediately.
I hope this helps someone out.
