Google Chrome Profile issues ?

Hello Richard,

 

The error message you get says that there is some sort of corruption in your Google Chrome profile data.

 

The solution is quite simple.

 

Quit Google Chrome (make sure it's gone from the processes too). Then locate the file named "Web Data".

 

You might need to change some settings in your OS to be able to see hidden files and folders.

 

Once you've located the file, delete it.

 

(If you have a trouble finding the file, it should be located in following directories:

Mac OSX: /Users/{user}/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default

Windows 7: C:Users{username}AppDataLocalGoogleChromeUser DataDefault

Windows XP: C:Documents and Settings{username}Local SettingsApplication DataGoogleChromeUser Data

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