I have tried the newest dev version as well. Chrome will also not work on any other windows profile, or browser profile. Doing a system restore is not an option, as I disabled this for other testing. I have also ran many virus scans with Eset Nod 32, Super Antispyware, and Malware Bytes. All of these have turned up a clean system. IE, and Firefox both work fine. I have removed all extensions, and removed flash from the browser.</p> <p>The only way to get chrome or chromium to work is to add the -no-sandbox option to the startup target. I do not find this a valid fix, as it leaves the browser open to vulnerabilities.</p> <p>I have looked high and low across the great plains of the internet, and I have not found any fix options.</p> <p>Please say that Google has a fix for this. If not, can someone with super powers please fashion a fix-all solution to end world hunger? Oh and Can you help me with my problem? </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/wecome-say-hello#post-2 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 23:10:54 +0000 chromestory 2@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>Hi There, If you are new here, say hello here, and let others know about you :) </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/auto-page-refresh-how#post-17 Mon, 15 Jun 2009 03:42:52 +0000 olyduck 17@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>How do I set my Chrome to automatically refresh the page every XX minutes? </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/hiow-do-i-contact-the-admin-of-this-site#post-54 Fri, 05 Mar 2010 11:24:01 +0000 stevepaul 54@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>@ChromeStory,</p> <p>I can't find any way on this forum to contact you, so hope this method works ...</p> <p>I have an idea for a forum specifically about Extensions and wandered if you are interested in pursuing the idea ...</p> <p>I have tried to get the Admin over at ChromePlugins interested but to no avail ...</p> <p>You can find my idea here ....http://www.chromeplugins.org/google/chrome-talk/recommended-extensions-9343.html#post22446</p> <p>I believe there is a vast audience for a forum that majors on advice and recommendations for extensions, especially when you consider there are now over 3000 extensions available on the gallery ...</p> <p>If you're interested can you email me to discuss further ... </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/tab-management#post-59 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 23:14:20 +0000 Maldar 59@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>I will like to get some discussion about this. Sometimes I have around 20 a 30 tabs open in chrome, this is quite a lot, this gives tabs sometimes not even a favicon. Their are some extensions that gives a vertical list of your tabs. But I don't want to click a button to view my tabs.<br /> So a vertical list that is permanent viewable left or right can be an option. But that takes a lot of screen space.</p> <p>I thought firefox had something like scrolling on the tabbar. with your mouse on the tabbar and scroll with the wheel. That is an option I think I like. In the configuration panel something like tablength. </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/favicon-manager#post-60 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 23:25:04 +0000 Maldar 60@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>What I really want to see in chrome is some kind of favicon maanager. Maybe integrated in the bookmark maanager. At the first place to give favicon's to websites you bookmarked. And I also like to give your tabs also favicon's, if they had no one. I think only those you bookmarked. </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/chrome-on-ubuntu-904-flash#post-53 Fri, 18 Dec 2009 07:45:54 +0000 olyduck 53@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>Chrome beta for LINUX on my Ubuntu 9.04 loaded quickly and is fast. Two questions:<br /> 1/ I can't get YouTube videos to play. I have flash players loaded. Ideas?</p> <p>2/ Since I downloaded Chrome from the Google site (not available through Ubuntu package manager), will Chrome just update on it's own?

Now when I open Chrome it doesn't come up full screen. It won't let me drag it far enough to the left to get my pointer to the maximize box. When I hit F11 I lose the back and forward arrows. I tried unistall and reinstall with the same results. I'm a computer dummy so this is very frustrating. </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/https-and-chrome#post-48 Mon, 21 Sep 2009 01:51:45 +0000 Superdoorsdad 48@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Am a chrome fan however after updating to version 2 and now 3 chrome does not let me load any HTTPS pages, giving me the following error:<br /> Error 2 (net::ERR_FAILED): Unknown error<br /> Have reset Chrome settings to default, uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome all to no avail.

This option though, does not apply to every website. So is there a way to make it work like in firefox? where you can choose whether to use the fonts that YOU want and for every single website?<br /> The thing is that chrome's font rendering is OK. Sites like facebook and twitter look terrible, and this does not happen with other browsers.</p> <p>Thanks in advance :D</p> <p>ps: OS: windows 7 </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/webpage-toolbar#post-36 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 18:52:44 +0000 Anonymous 36@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>hello everyone, i just got chrome and i have an issue, i made facebook a desktop shortcut which was fine. but now wen i use that short cut to access facebook it doesnt have the toolbar at the top like for searches and going backpage etc. is this what happens always with desktop shortcuts or can i do anything about it, its just a bit annoying. any help appreciated </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/pop-ups-working-erraticaly#post-28 Wed, 01 Jul 2009 23:21:18 +0000 lualpa 28@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>I have GC 3.0.190.1<br /> Under the Hood does not show the managing options for pop-ups earlier versions used to show.</p> <p>I have also started the browser with the -disable pop-up blocker- parm but I am still getting odd results.<br /> Pop-ups come up in some sites and not at other sites.</p> <p>No pop-up "alarm" at the right hand lower corner.</p> <p>Any input?</p> <p>Thank you </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/placeholders-instead-of-pictures#post-26 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:58:58 +0000 glondor 26@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>I do not get pictures on sites anymore, just placeholders.

This would be really useful for Web developers until somebody is gracious enough to port Firefox's Web developer's kit completely to Chrome :) . I'm presuming this should be easy with basic Javascripting, but I'm a newby in this, so waiting for some expert light.<br /> Cheers<br /> K </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/auto-page-refresh-soon#post-15 Mon, 15 Jun 2009 02:59:59 +0000 olyduck 15@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>Any news on when Chrome will have a congfigurable auto page refresh feature? </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/how-to-install-chrome-on-fedora#post-14 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 22:11:36 +0000 chromestory 14@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>hi people ..</p> <p>google has launched dev version of Linux .. well, that was only for Ubuntu, and Debian .. the .deb package .. what if you want to use it on another Linux platform, like fedora 11 ?</p> <p>Follow this link .. <a href="http://littlethorpe.net/tptrn/article/87/googles-chrome-browser-on-linux" rel="nofollow">http://littlethorpe.net/tptrn/article/87/googles-chrome-browser-on-linux</a></p> <p>sitemap 2 </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/are-you-using-the-linux-dev-version#post-13 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 11:26:22 +0000 chromestory 13@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Is anyone using Dev version for Chrome released for Ubuntu ?<br /> I am using it right now, and it looks pretty stable .. but, loads of features missing ... like flsh .. </p> http://chromestory.com/forum/topic/chrome-freezing#post-5 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 11:39:43 +0000 pd1001 5@http://chromestory.com/forum/ <p>As mentioned on Twitter,<br /> Generally Chrome is excelent and does a very good job.I have one small problem,when using Friendfeed and clicking on a link Chrome freezes.It happened briefly with Twitter but righted itself,everything else works properly.Do you have any ideas to help sort this out.WindowsXP is my OS.Thankyou for your time. </p>
