Why use an older version of Google Chrome?
Google only provides an online setup file for Google Chrome which installs the latest version of Google Chrome. It happens frequently that a user upgrades to a new version of Google Chrome and gets upset by an unpleasant feature, a missing option or an annoying bug. Therefore, some users want to roll back to an older version of Google Chrome to preserve a useful feature, option or support some legacy technology. However, is it really wise to use an out-dated verison of Google Chrome? The answer is NO since out-dated browsers usually come with security issues. A better solution to the problem is to use Slimjet browser, which runs on the latest Blink engine while offering more flexibity, features and options compared with Google Chrome. With Slimjet, we give users more choices to tune their browser to their own personal preference instead of forcing a majority style on everyone. Slimjet also integrates more features internally in the most efficient way so that you don't have to spend time dealing with unstable and resource-consuming third-party plugins. Best of all, Slimjet syncs all your Chrome data and settings via your Google account and is compatible with your favorite Chrome extensions. There is absolutely no learning curve for you to switch from Chrome to Slimjet. Give Slimjet a try now and you will never look back!
For users who insist on using an old version of Google Chrome and becoming vulnerable to security issues, you can find the right version of Google Chrome to download for your platform in the following sections.
Google Chrome can no longer download files. It starts the download but never finishes. Google Chrome does not download files anymore. Ask Question 1. I have Google Chrome running on HP P6516F with Windows 7 Home Premium. Google Chrome can no longer download files. Can't download anything on Chrome. Google Chrome not playing mp4 files. May 31, 2018 - I can't download anything. Every time I try to download something, it says 'Failed: Blocked.' I don't have the content control blocking downloads.
Support of Java, Silverlight and NPAPI plugins
Unfortunately, we only started to archive old versions of Chrome since Chrome 48. Chrome dropped support for Java, silverlight and other NPAPI plugins in Chrome 45. If you are looking for an old version of Chrome with support of Java, silverlight or other NPAPI plugins, you would have to use Slimjet Web Browser, which is based on Chromium and retains support of Java, silverlight and other NPAPI plugins.
Google Chrome Windows version
The old versions of Chrome before V58 are packed as 7zip self-extracting executable. Just run the executable and extract the files under any folder on your hard drive. Then launch Google chrome with chrome.exe under the extraction folder. After V59, the archived chrome old version files are official Chrome offline installers. Just uninstall any current version of Chrome first and then run the downloaded installer. It's a one-click installer without any interactive UI.

Looking for Google Chrome for Windows 10? Welcome to Chrome Story’s user manual for Google Chrome on Windows. This page has useful information about downloading, installing and configuring Google Chrome on Windows operating systems. This document covers Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8 and Windows 7.
Google Chrome is the world’s most favorite browser. Google has an open source project called Chromium and Chrome is Chromium + Google’s exclusive features like sync, autofill and more.
Google Chrome Features
Before you get started, I wanted to give you a brief list of Chrome’s major features:
- An address bar (also known as Omnibox) that can do much more than type web addresses.
- Extensions and apps (including Adblock and Adblock Plus, yes!)
- Browser themes
- Built-in Adobe PDF viewer
- Chromesync – Synchronize your browsing history and more between all your devices
- Built-in Adobe Flash
- Beta, Dev and Canary versions to test experimental features
- Auto update – always get the latest version of Chrome without doing anything at all!
- Minimal design
Note: Google Chrome is no longer officially supported on Windows XP. It is recommended that you upgrade to a newer version of Microsoft Windows to continue using Chrome and get all the new features and security updates.
Google Chrome Can't Download Video
New! If Chrome is freezing or crashing on your PC, try these recommendations.
Before we start, which browser are you using currently? Mozilla Firefox or Microsoft Edge? Maybe Opera? Let me know in comments, ok? I would love to hear your thoughts on how the switch went and what are the main differences that you felt.
Download Google Chrome for Windows 10
The newest version of Microsoft Windows is here. Windows 10 launches on July 29th, 2015 and Google Chrome for Windows 10 is already available. Why? The same Windows installer that we use for Windows 8 and Windows 7 works for the latest version for Windows too. Before we get started:
To download Google Chrome for Windows 10, go to google.com/chrome
Windows 10 is a huge update for Microsoft (and that’s why they skipped the number 9, to make the point). This is their effort to make Windows a platform in this multi-screen world and prepare it for the Internet of things era. There is even a new default web browser named Edge (more on that later).
I downloaded and installed Windows 10 when it came out as a Tech Preview and started using Google Chrome on it right away. I completed the installation without any issues or errors. There are no surprises yet, apart from minor tweaks that come with Windows 10.
It will be interesting to watch the improvements that Google will bring to Chrome to make use of any new feature that Windows 10 offers to applications. Will they do something with the live tiles?
You can download the same Windows installer available at google.com/chrome to install Chrome on Windows 10. I could get Chrome working on my Windows 10 PC within minutes.
Now that your Google Chrome web browser download is done, let us take a look at some of the things you can do with your new favorite browser.
How to Install Chrome for Windows 10
Here are the steps to install Google Chrome on your Windows 10 computer.
Download Google Chrome
Go to google.com/chrome and click Download Chrome.
Click Accept and Install
On the popup, click Accept and Install.
Click “Save”
Google Chrome installer will now be downloaded. Click Save to download and save the installer file.
Click “Run”
After the download is completely, double click the installer. Click “Run”
If a prompt appears asking for permission to install, click Yes. Google Chrome will now complete the remaining download and install.
Metro Mode Google Chrome For Windows 10
Metro mode does not hide the Windows taskbar, that is the only thing that I have noted so far. This affects the “Chrome OS Experience” on Windows.
This, however, is happening to other metro apps as well. So, this is not a Chrome bug.
Make Chrome Default Browser on Windows 10
You find our guide to making Chrome your default browser here. That guide provided you multiple options to make Chrome your default browser. Here is one example from there:
- Go to settings in Chrome, (click settings icon or open chrome://settings)
- Search for “Default Browser”
- Click “Make Chrome my default browser”
- And you are done!
Google Chrome Slow on Windows 10
Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can try when Chrome starts working slow and loading pages slow. I have collected a bunch of fixes here. Try them out, I am sure one of these will work for you.
This guide is organized into operating system specific steps for Windows, Linux, OS X, and Chrome OS. Try steps listed in “All operating systems” section first before trying OS specific steps.
All Operating Systems
- Try the incognito window ( CTRL + SHIFT + N ). This launches Chrome without any extensions, if you haven’t enabled them on incognito mode). If Google Chrome is working better in this mode, the culprit is extensions. Try disabling them one by one and find out which one is the troublemaker.
- Go to Chrome Settings > Advanced Settings > Privacy and uncheck “Predict network actions to improve page load performance“. This seems to be helping in some cases. Give it a try.
- Try clearing browser data, history, cache etc from settings.
- Search for “Reset browser”. This will reset the Chrome profile to default settings.
- From chrome://flags, try resetting all flags to default.
Windows
- Open up the task manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc). Click the processes tab and look for something that looks like Browser Manager. If you have it, try googling for directions on how to remove it. Restart your computer after the uninstall. This should fix the issue for you.
- In a similar way, look for a program called BrowserProtect. Remove it, restart your computer and try again.
Windows 8 and Windows 8.1
- If you are using Chrome on Metro Mode, try relaunching it in desktop mode (Setting > Relaunch Chrome in Desktop Mode)
- Window 8.1: Right click on Chrome and choose properties. Next click on the tab that says compatibility. Check the checkbox that says run this program in compatibility mode and choose Windows 8.
Google Chrome Slow to Start
If Google Chrome is slow on startup, here is something that you can try:
- Try disabling all the extensions, see if Chrome loads faster
- If you are opening Chrome with many tabs on launch, reduce them
- Try (temporarily) disabling your antivirus software and if it is showing any improvement.
- Check your list of software installed on the PC. If you find any suspicious software, (Babylon etc) uninstall and restart your computer.
Delete “User Data”
This is bit tricky, but user jim38 on Google Help Forum has a solution that might help you. Be sure to take a backup of your bookmarks as explained here.
1. Choose Bookmarks/Bookmark Manager/Organize. 2. Export your bookmarks to an HTML file — somewhere you can find it. 3. Close Chrome. 4. Go to C:Documents and SettingsLocal SettingsApplication DataGoogleChromeUser Data (fill in your computer username) 5. Right-click on the User Data folder and rename it. I just add an X to the end of the name. 6. Restart Chrome, go to

Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge?
Microsoft has upped their browser game with all new browser, Edge. The browser leaves the Internet Explorer legacy and builds a new and modern browser from ground up. Initial responses to the Edge browser has been positive. Hence, we can safely assume that tough competition awaits for Google on the Windows platform.
People will definitely check out Edge when it comes with Windows 10. There are plenty of Internet Explorer lovers still around, and Edge will be a blessing for them.
For Chrome fans like you and me, we will still use Edge or IE to download Chrome on our new Windows 10 computers. We will have to wait and see how the reset of the world responds to this new competition.

Click the Settings icon on the top right corner to go to settings. And from there, click Relaunch in Desktop Mode. Google Chrome will now restart into the normal mode. This is your regular Google Chrome (non-metro mode). Alt+F is your keyboard shortcut. Hope you got that fixed!

Same answer as above. Alt+F is your keyboard shortcut. Alternatively, choose Relaunch in Desktop Mode from the Settings menu (the bacon icon!).

Chrome Windows Phone 10
Unfortunately, Google Chrome is not yet available for Windows Phone operating system. It is the same situation for Google Chrome on Windows RT. There is nothing much known about Google’s plans for releasing apps for Microsoft’s mobile platform. If there is any news of such plan, be assured that chromestory.com will report it for you!
Chrome OS Experience on Windows 10
The Metro Mode Chrome app on Windows 8 behaves just like Chrome OS. It gives an immersive experience within the Chrome UI.
To enable this, all you have to do is launch Chrome in Metro Mode (Alt + F). Here is what you get:
- Multiple windows, including incognito
- Re-size windows and move them around just like Chrome OS
- Apps menu
- Apps shelf (or the taskbar)
- Settings menu on bottom-right-corner (where I get a Chrome OS like “restart to update” message), and a power down (!!) icon.
- A nice feeling, because I love Chrome OS.
Uninstall Chrome from Windows Windows 10

Google Chrome on Windows 10 – Download
It is just the same Google Chrome browser that you download from google.com/chrome. The download and install went pretty smooth. I use Chromesync, so getting everything back, including my extensions and passwords was easy, and smooth.
When you start downloading, Google first gives you a small file, which starts downloading the complete installer. A sort of download manager. Once download is complete, you can double-click the file to start your installation.
Metro Mode
Yes, we still have the “Relaunch Chrome in Windows 8 Mode”. It gives us the Metro Mode Chrome, but this time on Windows 10, I still see the Windows Task Bar at the bottom.
I think that’s how Microsoft wanted it to look because I can see the taskbar when I use other Metro apps. Maybe this is a bug that they are yet to fix?
I am yet to find anything Windows 10 specific for Google Chrome, but I’ll keep looking. That’ll give me a reason to use my PC once in a while.

Upgrading from Windows 8.1
Upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 was pretty smooth. My Chrome was unaffected and I could start using right after my first login.
I would still recommend using Chromesync to back up your passwords, extensions, and other important information before the upgrade. If you are not using Chromesync yet, here is the official article explaining Chromesync and its features.
Chrome on Windows 10 – The Experience
Windows 10 is a very solid version of Windows from Microsoft. The story of Chrome on Windows 10 is no different. It runs smoothly and the user interface of Windows 10 plays nice with Chrome’s UI. Chrome looks good and works neat too.
Google is yet to add any Windows 10 specific features to Chrome. For now, Chrome works smoothly on Windows. Since this version of Microsoft’s operating system is about making things stable and introducing a unified experience across platforms, we are less likely to see any disruptive changes or features, especially on the UX side.
