    You could just install it, and never use it. It is a great browser, and can be used as a back up if needed. That way the nags will stop for sure.
    Another opportunity. :)

    Chrome is already installed on my machine. But, I still get the annoying banner prompt and gmail login prompt.
    One would think Microsoft would put a stop to this Google practice in IE or Windows. If there is a way to stop this, please advise. Although, I see Frederick posted a Google link to a fix below that I will try.

    Thank you.

    Hi,
    The link posted does not work anymore or the alternative link to go to without the download Chrome stuff,
    I just ignore the flags to download,
    Cheers.

    My home page is set to https://encrypted.google.com

    If I block pop ups from:

    encrypted.google.com##.gb_g
    encrypted.google.com##.gb_ga

    Then I don't see "Get Google Chrome" appear.

    Try This maybe


    W10 64x IE11. I have APB adblock installed. I don't know but clicking the wee icon on the status bar click settings and there is a box that had been ticked viz; Allow some non-intrusive advertising. Unticking it seem to get rid of this "want chrome" box. I do use google as my home page and on tabs. Now it's gone. -- I guess something else will take it's place.
