Some users have noted that Google Chrome assigns a unique Client ID at every installation so each copy can be identified and tracked.

If you wish not to disclose your ID, Stefan Bauer has created a small Google Chrome launcher that automatically deletes the unique Client ID before each run. It basically scans the “Local State” file inside the Chrome directory and removes all the info related to the Client ID before starting the actual browser.

Ok, I did it! It seems System Mechanic Professional processes were causing Chrome not to start. I’ll wait a few days and then try to reinstall IOLO’s application.
