File Troubleshooting › EXE Files › chrome.exe What Is Chrome.exe? How To Repair It? [SOLVED]

Chrome.exe issues are often the result of the executable file that is missing, deleted, or being moved from it's original location. Often, these EXE errors are encountered during Google Chrome software startup. As a first troubleshootiong step, most PC professionals will attempt to replace the applicable version of the EXE file. In addition, if your chrome.exe error was due to a removed malware infection, we recommend running a registry scan to clean up any invalid file path references created by the malicious program.

Executable Files that employ the EXE file extension are also known as the Windows Executable File format. In the list below, you can download the most recent file versions for nearly all Windows versions, including some for %%os%%. If we do not currently have your required chrome.exe version available for download, you can request a copy by clicking "Request" below. Worst-case, you can always attempt to contact Google if you cannot find the required file version below.

Please take caution in ensuring the file is placed in the correct file directory. Following these instructions carefully should resolve your chrome.exe error, but we recommend running a brief check. Test the outcome of the file replacement by loading Google Chrome to see if the error still appears as it did before.
