Looking for someone skilled with computers...
...or at least skilled enough to help me out.
Okay so, I use Chrome.
Been using Chrome for a while now.
Today I started it up and this bubble popped up in the notification area:
Also, all my preferences, like theme and add-ons, were gone.
Does anyone know what I should do?

I tried, but when I went to find that folder, it didn't exist.

If you are having trouble with simple counting, use the following mnemonic device: 1 comes before 2 comes before 5,280 comes before 523,860,759 comes after the square root of -153 comes before π. This will make your previous counting problems seem like no big deal.

How about deleting all the old Chrome files and then try.
Edit: no, I didn't read your post JJROCKER.

Delete every last bit of Chrome, then redownload it. That worked for me before.

Are you sure you got ALL of them?
Edit: Installer? Yes, just to be safe.

I searched my computer and there were no more files.

Re: Looking for someone skilled with computers...
Hmm...if other people's suggestions didn't work, try reinstalling Chrome in a different folder (like make the folder "Google Chrome" in the Program Files folder, instead of "Chrome" in Google's Program Files folder).

Re: Looking for someone skilled with computers...
I fixed it.
I ended up looking on the Google Help Forum for an answer, though.
But thanks for trying to help, guys. c:

Re: Looking for someone skilled with computers...
Go to
Code:
C:/documents and settings/ [your username]/local settings/application data
and delete the folder titled "Google Chrome". Then, go to your program files and delete the file called Google Chrome (may be a subdivision of a file called Google) then re-install Google Chrome.
