How do I backup the default folder?
Just Rename the Default folder.
Following these steps, is it then possible to import the old bookmarks?
Never mind, I got it.
how to change user account name to your computer username?
I’ve been searching for weeks for a solution for this! Chrome would open as I could see it on the taskbar but it would not display on the screen desktop. Thank you!
This did not work, it says there is no Internet connection
It doesn’t work just like all the other workarounds. It is confusing about telling us to rename our account name. I assume you just wanted the default folder deleted.
The Full Path is C:\Users\My Lappy\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data only change user account name to your computer username.
So I renamed Userdata to my username and deleted default, nope, then I changed it back, deleted the default, nope, put everything back the way it is because that did nothing.
Advanced System Care, a program I have used daily for years is what corrupted my Chrome into an 0xc000007b error, I tried to restore what it previously did and the constant Chrome error popups that wouldn’t stop, stopped and after that I cannot open Chrome at all and not even get the error anymore. I’m here to warn anyone not to use Advanced SystemCare Pro if you don’t want this headache.
So I fixed that error and got nothing so thanks to a program that I ran daily, suddenly my Chrome got corrupt. Running all the anti-virus, malware, spyware, etc doesn’t fix anything but at least tons of stuff has been deleted from computer. That’s what messed up my Chrome in the first place.
I tried to delete the .dll file that seems to work for everyone but me. Re-installing doesn’t help. I think I’ve used up every remedy I could find on the internet that is within the last couple years. Sad to no longer have Chrome and stuck with Opera since the other two browsers have issues.
I am glad you have been able to help other users and maybe if it doesn’t work, they can delete the .dll file and it will work then. I am just unique I guess, or couldn’t figure out the directions correctly. Good luck people.
it worked. thanks!!
I tried this but it does not work. The problem is that I cannot close out of Chrome (the second part of Step 2) because it won’t even open at all. I have tried deleting Chrome and re-installing it. With no luck.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks for sharing the information, It was really helpful . To Reset the Browser, you need to follow the steps:
1. Go to the Google chrome settings.
2. Click on Advanced settings on the very bottom.
3. Another drop-down page would appear, and then on the very bottom of that page, there is Reset settings option .Click on Reset button and browser would reset.
Thanks for the input.
This was the first suggestion above.
