Google Chrome - plug-in crash

Users of one of the most popular browsers often have a problem, due to the fact that the application stops its work, stopping to respond to user requests. At that, the inscription "The plug-in crashed" appears. This problem is typical not only for "Chrome", but for all its clones, created on the basis of the engine "Web Kit".

If the plug-in crash occurs annoyingly often, then some actions should be taken to eliminate this problem. It should be noted that the way to combat this phenomenon is very simple, and it will not be difficult to master it. As a result, you can use one of the fastest browsers, forgetting about the inconvenience.

The reason for the situation when the browser crashes the plugin is the structure of its work. The fact is that all browsers, except for Chrome, use an off-line version of the application to display multimedia on the pages of web sites. It's about Adobe Flash Player. However, all software products on the basis of "Web-kit" received when creating their own integrated version of this player. As a consequence, in the process of working the browser refers to all versions of the Flash Player found in the system, which creates the cause responsible for the failure.

As a rule, in the system there are two versions of the player from Adobe. This is directly built into the browser and standalone version, but sometimes there may be more. To fix the situation in which the plug-in crashes, you should run "Chrome", register "chrome: // plugins /" in the address bar and start the search. This will open a list of all the plug-ins used by the browser. As a rule, the extension from Adobe Flash Player will be the first in the list. To get full information about the application of this player, click on "Details" - the menu item located on the upper right.

Having opened the detailed information, it is necessary to disconnect that plug-in that is autonomous. To determine it, you need to pay attention to the address on which each player is installed. "Native" for "Chrome" option will contain an indication of the folder "Chrome", while the standalone version will most likely have an address beginning with "C: \ windows ...". The process of disconnection occurs when the option "Disconnect" is clicked.

Sometimes the problem after the above described actions remains. In this case, you can try to disable the built-in plug-in, leaving the autonomous version running, respectively. However, the use of integrated plug-ins has one major advantage - you do not need to track the release of new versions. It is very easy to update the plug-ins for Google Chrome, as the browser watches itself for new versions, suggesting their installation when it appears.

In the event that the problem has not been resolved and the message "Plug-in crash" continues to interfere with normal operation, radical measures need to be taken. To do this, it is necessary to completely reinstall "Chrome" by manually removing all installed stand-alone versions of Adobe Flash Player.

It should be noted that in almost all cases, disabling an offline version solves the problem of conflict in the system, allowing you to safely enjoy web surfing. Similarly, problems are solved in browsers-clones of "Chrome". Curiously, to access them is the same command as in the browser from "Google".
