Title: Folding at Home/Curecoin Chrome Tab Browser Re-installation Post by: paramind22 on October 17, 2016, 11:46:19 AM Has anyone using Folding at Home with the chrome browser ever have a serious corruption of Chrome that required re-installation?
I had a serious one yesterday with a restore session problem. I couldn't get into the browser for it to run properly and tried renaming the Current Session, etc. in the App Data folder. I reinstalled it a few times but it still wouldn't run. Turns out Chrome can leave about 360 megs of data behind (depending on your usage most likely) even when uninstalled from Control Panel. I deleted all that stuff and it's working but not yet giving me back passwords and such. It's on a laptop machine so not the only machine I use but I really hope to get Folding at Home with Curecoin to work properly. It was only working for me about two days.

Had to let it alone for a while.

Also, doing ANYTHING 24/7 on a laptop is a good way to make it overheat and die, not a good idea.

The corruption of Chrome may have been related to some malware, or just an instability over time, was just curious if anyone else had this happen. |
