This afternoon spent a good bit of time trying to resuscitate my google chrome browser. For long there was this instruction flashing on the top stating that my browser needs updating. So I downloaded the file and ran it using GDebi Package installer (I have a linux OS). But after that the browser would not launch. Click on the icon but nothing happens. I carried out all popular and recommended measures cited (uninstall, reinstall, upgrade, restart computer...). Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling through Terminal. Nothing happened... till I did this (in terminal):
And lo and behold, chrome was up and about! Writing this, not because I'm a computer technical geek but just as a reminder for myself and for anyone else whom it may help! Thanks to Kartik Agarwal who offered this solution.
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libnss3
