    Hi All,

    I started the PC this morning to have Chrome not loading pages. Other browsers (Firefox) working fine.

    Did a search for the usual fixes - none worked - uninstall, completely remove all Google file and reinstall -no fix.

    I came across this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWRhruj9ETw using and additional string of " -no-sandbox" in the target box of the apps properties.

    It worked, but Chrome is giving me an error that this might destabilize Chrome - "Stability and security will suffer."

    Anyone come across this issue and any thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Tried all possible solutions on that thread - no change - when I remove the sandbox tag, Chrome won't load.

    Bugger!

    If you load chrome in sandbox mode, and then go 'Settings' 'Delete this user' does it work for you?

    You could keep your bookmarks/settings in your google profile...

    When you load in nosandbox, can you see any extensions?
    Any unfamiliar ones?
    Disable them all?
