Windows 10: Chrome OS problems.

Hello. I am trying to install Chrome OS Flex on my Lenovo computer, and I get to where it is time to install it onto my USB drive. I am the administrator of this computer, could anyone help me get past this? I have tried changing the security properties of the USB. I have write permissions. Error Message: Unable to write to the selected USB flash drive or SD card. Your device's write permissions may be disabled, or your domain administration may have disabled writing to USB storage. Thanks!

problem uninstalling google chrome

Hi,

Since you already uninstalled Google Chrome using the Programs and Features, Google notifications may still be running in the background processes. We suggest that you follow these steps on how to end the Google Chrome process:

• On your keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
• Select Task Manager.
• Under Processes, locate Google Notifications or Google Chrome.
• Right click on them and select End Task.
• Double check under Programs and Features if Google Chrome is completely gone.

Let us know if these steps worked.

 

Constant Google Chrome problems (not crashing or freezing)

I first noticed this problem with Netflix. I can't watch Netflix.com in Chrome for more than one day. After a fresh install of Chrome, I can watch Netflix endlessly in one day, but the next day all videos will say "Oops something went wrong" and suggest looking at chrome://components, or suggest clearing all browser history/cache (which doesn't fix anything).

The next symptom was that chrome couldn't connect to any website at all, giving a message of "Aw, snap!". Any other browser worked fine.

Steps I've taken that fail to resolve:

1. Clearing all browser cache/history/temp files

2. Killing chrome.exe to ensure a fresh process

3. Renaming the AppData folder to old_Chrome so it generates new appdata

The only "step" that actually fixes chrome is to fully uninstall and reinstall it. But it always breaks again 1 to 3 days later. This problem has spanned across a clean OS reimaging I did last weekend (for other reasons).

Specs:

Windows 10.0.18362 Build 18362 (Pro), custom build tower, no 3rd party anti-virus, standard out-of-box windows firewall settings

 

Google Chrome and Chrome OS......

I'm not saying it is better at all. That would be impossible it is not even implemented yet. You are right I would gladly leave Windows if Linux was a viable option for Gaming. But what Google chrome OS has is growth potential.
I used to love windows...... but have recently become somewhat anti windows. Yes Microsoft has come up with some really great idea's. But now that they are so large they do take advantage of the situation.
That is why I get so excited when anyone comes out with a new option. I wouldn't care if it was McDonald's that came out with and OS....... I would still be excited because there would be more competition. It might make Microsoft to be a little more consumer friendly.

I never said that they would fall because of Google Chrome OS. What I was more meaning that they would fall because of their own accord. Example( Vista, Failure to listen to the customer, Internet explorer problems Exc....) I just stated that it would give a good chance for someone else to step up. And who better than a house hold name like Google.
Like I said this is all just speculation and What if's ....... But if there were no what if's in the world then computer's in general would have never advanced in the first place. It takes someone with a creative Idea and thought to push forward things in the first place.
And to hinder those thoughts are anti Constructive.

Although I will agree that there are just some thoughts that shouldn't be brought up...... Like for example .......... What if Nvidia's Femi is 27 times more powerful than a 5870.

At least my Idea has some logic behind it. And not just based on wild guess's


Also A question about Chrome Browser........ I have an old AOL mail account back from the days of Dial up that I still use. I am wondering if anyone else here has one and uses Chrome. When I use Chrome occasionally to access that account......... It fails to render the sign in area. Just wonder if anyone else is experiencing the same problem with either AOL or just sign in's in general with it.
