Need to reinstall chrome on every reboot

Hey there Liyank,

We'd like to help by learning more about what's happening, along with ruling out some basics:

1. You mentioned updating your Mac to macOS Sonoma 14.0, along with restarting your Mac, but we're not quite understanding what's happening with Google Chrome. Are we correct in understanding it no longer shows installed in the Applications folder on your Mac? The more details you provide, the better we'll understand exactly what's occurring.
2. Are any other apps having this issue? If not, we recommend taking the steps here: If an app on your Mac stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open While we understand that it doesn't describe the exact issue occurring, we still recommend the steps listed, including contacting the app developer if more help is needed.

Cheers!

You need to take the .dmg file out of your downloads folder - that is not the folder to run apps from. move it to your desktop and then follow chrome instructions how to properly install the app in the Applications folder. That is where apps need to be installed.

Hello Liyank,

For something like that you'll want to reach out to Google support. As the apps developers, they'll be best to see what could be causing this behavior.

You can reach out to them here: Google Chrome Help

Cheers!

Hi, babowa,

Thanks for that tidbit! I did that and I'll see what happens next time

I tried this and it did not work. Does anyone else have any suggestions on how to fix this?
