Windows 10: Chrome Load Error from External Link?

Chrome is working fine for normal browsing. I get the 0xc0000142 error when opening Chrome from an external link e.g. the Buy link in Macrium Reflect / Help. The link opens fine if I select Edge as the default browser. I've done the obvious steps of running sfc /scannow and reinstalling Chrome to no effect. Stopping Kaspersky Internet Security stops the error but I can't identify the specific antivirus option causing the problem by turning off/on each antivirus feature. Is there a known fix for this issue? I enclose the error report and error log entry:

google chrome problems in windows 10

I recently performed a fresh install of Windows 10 and had the same problem loading the Chrome browser download page. Before blaming Microsoft for the problem I did some troubleshooting as I was also seeing that ad.doubleclick.net was also not loading.
It showed an error message produced on the chrome download page (a page that would not load) stating that ad.doubleclick.net could not load.

During the setup process of my new Windows10 OS and before attempting to install chrome I installed Spybot's Anti-Beacon software which puts a lot of blocks on services that affect your privacy settings. One of those settings was to include the ad.doubleclick.net
in a block list on your c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file. By doing so, it keeps that service from loading which apparently Google's chrome download site must require in order to continue. After removing that entry from the hosts file, I was able
to successfully continue to the Chrome Browser download site and install Chrome.

If you have similar software on your computer, anti-virus, anti-malware etc., that might be blocking this resource, you might want to check to see if that is the case and perform any changes necessary to allow ad.doubleclick.net to load and that may solve
your problems with Chrome and Windows 10 working properly together.

I hope this info helps some of you.
