  3. Why after install windows 10,my google chrome browser not working

    You have to completely remove chrome not just uninstall.

    The New Chrome 60 official build try this link to remove and then download and install from google not the link to make sure you get chrome 60 the latest.

    How to install Google Chrome on Lumia 640 XL LTE installed with Windows 10

    Hello,

    We realize your requirement in this regard.

    You can download the same from Windows Store. However, we're unable to assure you the compatibility of the app with Windows 10, since it depends on developers side. Launch Windows Store. Type Google Chrome into the search bar, which you find on the top of
    the Windows Store and hit Enter key. From the search results, try to select the Google Chrome app which is from the official Google Inc. Click
    Install.

    Done. Now google chrome is ready to use once it install successfully.

    Keep posted if you require further assistance.

    Thank you.

    It wasn't even Chrome it was just app to download chrome, so no loss there. For example apple's app store policies does not allow apps to download other apps, they should be self contained so that shouldn't be surprise, MS store have similar policy.
    It's probably less steps just to open Edge and download Chrome, than open store download chrome downloader and then download chrome.
    And after what google did with windows mobile apps for google services this seems very light.
     
  7. Well Google tried to slip something in the Microsoft back door and got caught.

    When you want to play in somebodies backyard, you play by their rules.

    Why Google thought they could sneak that in, is be on me.

  9. Well I don't agree with Peter Bright.


    Neither Microsoft nor Google looks good in this Chrome-installer squabble | Ars Technica


    Apple stores has rules.
    Microsoft stores has rules.
    Hell even a Walmart store has rules.

    If one wants to play in someone's store, you play by their rules.
    Microsoft is trying to keep their store as safe as possible for their customers.

    Come to think about it; this forum has rules that we must play by.
    This forum is one of Johns stores.
    I would think that John monitors his advertisers and the methods they use.
    It's his store and he is Boss.
    Thank you for shopping at Johns store.

    I understand Microsoft does not want to promote one of its competitors, but Microsoft should also want its users to safely install software. From the article it states some Windows users of Chrome are getting malware by downloading Chrome from the wrong site. For an experienced user that hopefully would never happen, but for someone just starting out using Windows it could.

  11. That is fine.

    Google has the money to create Chrome to the standards that Microsoft requires to offer programs in the Microsoft store.
