Compatibility mode not so compatible
I received the message below when re-starting Google Chrome:
It turns out that it fails because I had it set to Windows XP 'compatibility mode' in Windows 7. I did that because Chrome kept crashing and I thought setting it back to a lesser version might be the cure. I was wrong.
The fix: Find the icon for Chrome, right-click, choose 'Properties' and then the 'Compatibility Tab' and uncheck 'Run this program in compatibility mode". Save and go on your way.
Note: If the checkbox is grayed out (disabled), use the 'Change settings for all users' button and set it there.
