So I'm having an issue with google chrome. Every time I try to launch chrome, I get the little circle hourglass waiting thing next to my cursor for half a second and it stops launching. The task manager doesn't display chrome apps running in the background like it usually does. I've restarted my computer, reinstalled chrome, even gone back to a previous restore point a few days before it started happening and nothing works. Help pls....

try reinstalling windows, the windows sometimes screws up and fails to install some required file for some programs to work, then try installing chrome, if it fails again then open task manger to see if your CPU and RAM usage go up if they do chrome is loading it self in RAM but fails if something is wrong so it stops loading it self into RAM to not cause a BSOD

****SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH IT'S REALLY TERRIBLE*****

Been married to my wife for 3 years now! Yay!

I got it to work. After I used ADW Cleaner, I reinstalled chrome and everything works again. Thanks for the help guys!
