 Uninstall Google Chrome

This article is from Google. If you would like to see it from their website, click here (I have it on my website below to avoid broken links)

You can remove Google Chrome like any other Windows program. Follow these steps

  1. Access the uninstall utility

    1. Click Start

    2. Click All Programs

    3. Click Google Chrome

    4. Click Google Chrome

    5. Click Uninstall Google Chrome

  2. If you want to delete your user profile information like your browser preferences, bookmarks, and history, select the "Also delete browser data" checkbox.

  3. Select the default browser you'd like to use.

  4. Click OK in the confirmation prompt.

The uninstall process will begin.

You can also use Window's Control panel to remove the browser.

If you cannot remove Chrome using this procedure, you will need to remove it manually. For assistance, click here.

 

Did the browser come packaged with other software on your computer or via Google Pack? If so, your version of Google Chrome may be installed system-wide and you'll need to log in to a user account with administrative rights on your computer to uninstall the browser. Uninstalling a system-wide version of Google Chrome removes the browser for all user accounts on your computer.

 

Google has procedures for Mac and Linux but I didn't include them since I am not familiar with them. If you need assistance with that visit their website.
