Here is a technical term used often by Google: "Oops."

If Google Chrome was a car, the National Transportation Safety Board would order a complete fleet recall.

Who knows what is going on? They don’t, apparently. And, they don’t seem to care.

They must have hired so many former Microsoft developers that the bug in the DNA has transferred.

“First I thought it was bug, then it become more frequent and now it has become part of life.

Google Chrome keeps crashing all the time. In most of the cases Chrome crashes while uploading images on any website. I use WordPress a lot and Chrome crashes a lot of times while uploading an image.

Chrome crashing problem has nothing to do with WordPress, it crashes with any CMS.

Today I’ve been using DFP and while uploading image Chrome crashed.

It also crashes while downloading the images. I’ve faced this issue many times.

It crashes while uploading on Drupal as well.

While uploading./downloading images Chrome just freezes and you have to use Task Manager to kill the process.

The freezing point is when you browser for image and click on upload or just double click on the image while you are in Windows explorer window.

There is no solution to this problem and if I’m not wrong this problem is nothing to do with settings either.

This is a bug in Google Chrome which Google Chrome’s smartest geeks need to fix before people start ditching Chrome and go back to Firefox.

While a solution is found or Chrome team fixes it, following are some of the suggestions for those who are fed up with crashes.

o    In WordPress always save posts in draft before uploading any image. WordPress automatically saves your posts in draft.

o    If you are using any other CMS where saving in draft is not possible then use any HTML editor/Word/Notepad to write content and keep it saved. I follow this method when I’m writing any researched article.

o    If  Chrome crashing has become epidemic for you then switch to Firefox.”

I'm quite happy with FF. I'm on the release channel and never have any issues. Chrome I never got into, my impression is that you are very open to web tracking when using Chrome. I really don't like the idea of being a client for Google analytics data collection.
