Adjusting Chrome Settings to Prevent Crashes

If you’re experiencing crashes while downloading on Chrome, there are a few settings you can adjust to help prevent them from happening in the future.

First, clear your cache and browsing history. This can help prevent any conflicts with your downloads.

Next, disable any extensions that may be causing the problem. You can do this by going to the Settings page, clicking on Extensions, and toggling off any extensions that may be causing issues.
