Google chrome and interenet explorer wont start!

[Lukas Porkka]

The last couple of days i've been experiencing problems with my google chrome browser. When i sign into my computer I press google chromein my pinbar and it looks like its a bout to start and it stops. The first thing that came to my mind then was to go into the task manager to end the process, i did that and still nothing happened. I decided to try deleting and redownloading chrome, so i tried accesing my internet explorer and it says " The application was unable to start correctly 0xc0000142". I then decide to restart my computer to a previous version when my chrome was working. I reset the computer and it says that the reset wasn't fully completed. I tried to start chrome, still nothing. After that i tried to go into exporer and it worked. I then downloaded chrome once again and chrome worked! On that evening I turn off the computer and the next day chrome wont start again, what should I do? Im not very good at computers and i would appreciate some help! Thanks!

Lukas Porkka,

Looking up that error message, I couldn't find an explanation of the exact cause, but it may be related to a system with a lot of registry errors, and clutter of error logs, fragmented files, malware, corrupted dlls, and so on. Here is a site that lists some steps to resolve the trouble:

The maintenance ideas are all good ones to follow anyway.

Be careful in downloading the fix it program and scan it carefully with Malwarebytes before using.

Good luck!
