digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted April 3, 2011 If your Google Chrome browser is crashing often with error "Shockwave Flash has crashed" and/or "Google Gears has crashed", then try this: 1. Type 'about:plugins' in the address bar to bring up a list of plug-ins (or get there via the spanner key at top right of Chrome, then 'Options', 'Under the Hood', 'Content Settings', 'Disable Individual Plug-Ins'). 2. Click on the '+Details' tag in the top right corner. 3. Find the flash plug-ins section (was at the top in my list). 4. If you have 2 flash plug-ins listed, disable the one that DOESN'T have 'gcswf32.dll' at the end of its location. 5. Restart the browser.

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted April 5, 2011 For users of Sony machines, this might be useful: Best answer - Shawn (Googler) (Google Employee) Go to this answerHere at Adobe I believe we've managed to track down a possible fix from Sony. The page that contains the fix is in Japanese so I've provided a direct link. This will update the Sony driver that we suspect to be the cause of the crash. We have not been able to reproduce this here but could really use your feedback. Please try this out and report back your results. http://dlv.update.sony.net/pub/vaio/download/EP0000166578/EP0000166578.exe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
