I’m having fun with Google Chrome but am wondering: how the heck do you get an update to it when there’s a new version? Do you just wait until the social networks are abuzz, or does the program automatically check? Your timing is splendid! As it happens, Google just this evening released an update to its barnstorming web browser and so I expect a lot of people will have this same question. With Windows you know that it automagically updates (assuming you have autoupdate turned on) but what about individual Windows applications? A bit of digging reveals how this works in Chrome: the update subsystem is displayed as part of the About Google Chrome window, including an indication that there’s a new version – if there is – and how to get it. First, of course, like with anything else to do with Chrome, you have to figure out how to get there!
02 Simple Ways to Disable Auto-update in Chrome Browser. Today, majority of the windows 10/8/7/XP users are using Chrome browser. Many times, user don’t want to update to the latest version of Chrome browser. Exit Terminal and restart Google Chrome to reactive automatic updates The number on the end is the number of seconds between version checking intervals, 18000 is the default setting but if you want to be more or less aggressive select a higher or lower number accordingly.
To find the “About Google Chrome” box, you need to click on the little wrench icon: Then you probably would never notice this, but it actually checks for a new version back at Google central when this window launches. This time I caught it in the act: A few moments later, the bottom portion changes to tell me what’s going on: Do I want to update?
I click on “Update Now” and It took me a few minutes before it had finished downloading the new version of Google Chrome, but once it did, finally, I saw this: I quit and restarted the browser, and now when I go to the About Google Chrome window, you’ll notice the version and release numbers are updated: Now I did this manually. I would be surprised if the browser didn’t automatically check when you launched it next, so you can probably just ignore the update until it tells you to check it out. But if you’re impatient or want to gain more control over the process, well, now you know how to do so!
Finally, if you haven’t yet installed Google Chrome, you might want to check out my handy tutorial:. Google Chrome seems to still have problems streaming certain online games. Funnytowers.com is a game that seems to run error free exclusively, only on Internet Explorer. Now, I absolutely LOVE Google Chrome, and I recommend it to every one of my friends who is computer/internet savvy. But not being able to implement my favorite browser and my favorite internet game is disheartening to say the least. PLEASE fix it.

I would love to make Google Chrome my only browser but I simply can’t do it if I can’t play my beloved Funny Towers game within Google Chrome. This was awesome. I typed in Google “How do you updated Google Chrome” and there this was. Now I know how. It was actually a very easy thing that I could have discovered, if I wasn’t too lazy, lol. I like Google Chrome, but what I don’t like is the fact that when users on deviantART create their own skins or themes for it, they are only able to be installed by swapping the.dll file, and if the themes.dll file that they provide, isn’t compatible with the version you have, then it won’t work. It shouldn’t be tied to the version you have, that’s unfair.
Also I don’t like the fact that Google won’t let users make their own themes, and put them up on their site, instead they have celebrities, and artists the world already knows which is not fair. If there are ways to make themes not tie to the.dll file, and be able to work with any version, no problem – just one click install deal. Then I’d be happy.
