I can't open chrome!

I can’t open chrome, it closes right away, I’ve tried command thingy : sudo ostree admin upgrade
but it says… error: Checking out deployment tree: No such metadata blah blah
tried to reinstall it but it’s the same, and other than chrome everything else works fine
what should I do?

Can you please open a Terminal and run:

python3 $(find /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.google.Chrome/x86_64/eos3 -name eos-google-chrome-app)

Whats the output of the command?

it says it could not find Flatpak

Can you please try to reinstall it with the following command:

rm -Rf ~/.var/app/com.google.Chrome
flatpak install --reinstall --assumeyes eos-apps com.google.Chrome

Please be aware that this will also delete your current Chrome settings (Bookmarks, …) if not synced with Google Services.

this whole thing?
rm -Rf ~/.var/app/com.google.Chrome
flatpak install --reinstall --assumeyes eos-apps com.google.Chrome
copy and paste it?

Yes. The first linr will delete the configuration folder for Google Chrome (in case that anything here has gone woo), the second line will reinstall Google Chrome.

still the same…

command… sudo ostree admin upgrade doesn’t work either saying error :frowning:

Can you please upload the diagnostic in the Thread. Use this button:

Something that would help us a lot to understand the problem would be this:

  1. Open the application called ‘Terminal’
  2. In this application run the command:

eos-diagnostics

  1. The above command will create a file with the information of your system (example: eos-diagnostic-160614_111731_UTC + 0100.txt); Send us this file so we can analyze and see a possible solution
