Google Chrome pinned to taskbar error

This might be a long-shot but what happens if you uninstall Chrome and then try reinstalling a fresh copy? Perhaps there was a glitch during original install of Version 21. If you want to give this a try I recommend using Revo Pro to uninstall. (It has a free 30 day trial period.) Revo has a forced uninstall option that is pretty good at finding those obscure bits and pieces that usually get left behind when using the native Windows uninstall process.

I have tried that now when i try to download and install Chrome it comes up with this error message

See if Chrome is still showing in your start menu (start > all programs) and/or control panel > programs and features. If it's showing in both places (or just in the start menu) use the Chrome uninstaller (start menu > Google Chrome > Uninstall.) If it's only showing in programs and features, use that to uninstall. But the Chrome uninstaller is my first choice.

If you still can't get rid of Chrome there's a manual work around from Google. (NOTE: Step 9 shows it's for Vista but it's the same command for Windows 7.)

Since this involves a registry change I recommend creating a restore point BEFORE doing anything else.

Chrome isn't anywhere (installation) i can't find it under control panel programs and features it just comes up with that error message when i try to install Chrome

The manual uninstall should get rid of all the Chrome entries in the registry and allow you to reinstall the latest version. Don't forget to make a Restore Point.

wont let me run the .reg file after i saved it to all files.

It was supposed to be saved to your desktop.

I saved it to my desktop (under all files) as a .reg file

When you right-clicked on the link to save the remove.reg file it should have looked like this:



Item 1 would be renamed to: remove.reg
Item 2 would be: all files
Item 3 is select (click on) desktop
Final step is to click on Save button.

When I followed these steps the file appeared on my desktop with a registry icon like this:



Is that what you got?
