Fix The Google Chrome "Aw, Snap!" Error

If you work on Google Chrome browser, you must have encountered this error from Google Chrome asking you to kill page because it has stopped responding and when you click on "Kill Page" the window gets transformed into a navy blue page stating, "Aw, Snap! Something went wrong while displaying this webpage. To continue, press Reload or go to another page".
Here's how to fix it and make Google Chrome work smoothly: Right click on the Google Chrome shortcut on the desktop and select "Properties"

In the "Google Chrome Properties" dialog box that opens, At the end of the text box for "Target" field, give a space after chrome.exe" and paste –no-sandbox and press OK. This is what the text box for "Target" field should look like:
"C:\Documents and Settings\your name\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" –no-sandbox

Click on "Apply" and then "OK". This is all to make your Google Chrome work smoothly!

  2. For 'Page Kill' in Chrome and in general for pages that become unresponsive there, we suggest, download TDSSKiller.exe from Kaspersky Lab; install and run it. There is a file which gets infected with TDSS rootkit and this fixes up Google Chrome being unresponsive.

  7. To all those with the 'Aw Snap' nightmare.
    I have found a solution after trying everything written on the net....
    It appears that the problem is a hidden Rootkit (Malware/Virus)
    I removed mine with TDS Killer.exe found here http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363
    Restart and all is well....

  10. This could be one of the single worst things that anyone could do to their computer. Chrome is the most secure browser anyone can use...unless you disable the sandbox. Do NOT do it!
