Fix Chrome Registry

This method will work only when your Chrome is already installed on your device. You have to clean all Google Chrome components from your computer in this process. I would recommend you to use Google Chrome Cleanup Tool for an easy solution.

1. Start Windows run first
2. And enter regedit
3. Now navigate to the path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER>>Software>>Google
4. Delete the Google folder
5. Again open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>>Software>>Google and delete the folder again
6. Now go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>>Software>>Wow6432Node>>Google path and again for once delete the Google folder
7. Do not delete anything else other than the Google folder
8. Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>>SOFTWARE>>Google>>Update>>Clients path
9. Look for {430FD4D0-B729-4F61-AA34-91526481799D} entry under the Client folder
10. Right-click on it and press delete
11. Right-click on the GoogleUpdate.exe file and delete it then restart your computer and check if the problem is solved or not.
