If your Google Chrome opens blank and all you see is this:
And even opening any of the Chrome settings appear the same way, with a sad, grey folder in the upper left, here is the fix:
1. Open File Explorer and navigate to: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data
2. Take a copy of everything in this directory and store it somewhere such as your desktop
3. Rename the “User Data” folder to something other than User Data
4. Re-Open Chrome
The problem is with your Chrome profile. This process will create a new profile for you. However, you will lose any saved password and bookmarks.
