For some reason Chrome stopped working on my PC today, it just totally refused to boot up. So I thought a quick uninstall and reinstall would sort it out. Wrong When I try to download and install Chrome I get "chrome "failed to cache the downloaded installer" I have done a system restore and that hasnt helped either Any ideas anyone? |

Try turning off you Anti Virus. Have you got anything filtering internet access that could be blocking? Apart from that download the Chrome off line installer from; http://support.google.com/installer/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=126299 I have a feeling it will work. |

+1 for the offline installer - I expect that will sort it! |

Nope, neither of those, or combination of those cleared it - Thanks anyway Seems a few people have the same issue but there is no real solution. I have seen one or two solutions based around reg edits which I will give a go over the weekend. For now its back to IE9 |

Nope, I have my hand strapped up due to an RSI I picked up. Its resulted in some interesting mashing of the keyboard |

Not come across it before, but I suppose you have seen this thread and suggested fixes? |

Thanks everyone, none of those solutions work. In fact from over 48 hours of Googling the problem I have come to the conclusion that although its a well known problem there is no solution. However, I created my fix by accident and I dont fully understand what happened in the background. This is what I did 1. Gave up on Chrome and started to use IE9 2. Got fed up of IE9 falling over because the Shockwave Flash Add In kept failing so I got rid of it and reinstalled it 3. During the reinstall it asked do I want to download Chrome and make it my default browser, so I ticked yes. 4. It installed an older version of Chrome which worked but kept showing an error message about it not being the latest version. 5. A couple of regedits and that was gone as well. 6. Checked for updates and updated it. I think by installing an older version (by accident) rather than trying to install the same latest version over and over again, tricked it in to re-embedding its self in to Windows correctly |
