Google Chrome shockwave flash keeps crashing

dublinman1990

I've had this problem lasting nearly all day. The shockwave flash keeps wrecking the browser because the flash had been hacked and therefore on five occasions since January.

I keep getting an "Aw Snap" page when viewing Google's service which is becoming annoying and an absolute disgrace tbh. Since yesterday and again today, I have not had access to Gmail, Youtube and also my apps and extensions.

I have gone to reporting these issues to Google Chrome staff a number of times already. All I've done so far is update to Chrome 22 beta version. But it still won't resolve it completely.

I have discovered that the sandbox feature is improving the browser, however, there is an article saying that crash prevention on Chrome has been reduced by 20% by using it with flash. That is not good enough IMO.

Is there anything else I can do for the moment? Thanks.

What version of Chrome are you using at this moment? Is it Chrome 21 or older?

That blank screen makes the browser itself disappear very often in front of me as well.

I couldn't tell you what version it is.

It's only on the computer a month if that means anything to you, and this started 3-4 days ago.

I've had the same problem and mine is up to date.

Click on the wrench and click about google chrome to see the version you have.

Happens to me from time to time too, though less and less, i just learned to ignore it.

I moved back to internet explorer - version 9. It is much more stable than chrome.

Firefox might also be worth trying, If you like addons .
