    Default Reverting to a previous dev channel version

    Hey guys. I am facing a problem with version 3.0.182.3. I believe some file I downloaded made it crash and I'm not able to start it now as it gives an application error. Is it possible to revert to the previous (3.0.182.2) version?

    Try following the advice in this thread first: Troubleshooting Help - Read Before Posting

    Then you have still have problems report back here. I'm positive we can resolve your issue without going to an old dev version. If not, I can provide you with a d/l link.

    @sohil ...

    You can try this from my previous post, you'll just need to substitute version numbers ...

    Or you could try here: http://filehippo.com/download_google_chrome/

    But I'd be more curious to fix your problem as opposed to rolling back a version.

    Just remembered, you might not want to go back to 3.0.182.2 ...

    It had the problems with the small fonts :-(

    I remembered that I had to remove all traces of Chrome before reinstalling Chrome to get it working

    One thing to do ...

    Keep a copy of your Chrome Default folder (as something else) that way when you uninstall Chrome you can delete the whole installation (Application and User Data)...

    When you reinstall Chrome you can then copy all your folder data into the new Default folder ....

    This way you get to keep all your bookmarks, history, preferences etc ..

    @StevePaul

    agreed wholeheartedly on keeping a backup of bookmarks, etc

    I noticed that Chrome 3.xxx uses a different structure from 2.xxx

    I'm pretty sure somewhere in that awesome troubleshooting sticky it mentions backing up that folder... ;-)

    Just remember you may not want to import the entire default folder.
