jybkk Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 The more details you can give about the issue, the more chance you will have to get an answer. Right now, we only know you have Windows 10 and that chrome crashes. That's really not enough. Does it happen randomly or when you are doing something specific? Is there an error message? What is the 'chrome plugin' you are talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THAIPHUKET Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 (edited) jyBKK, your questions are to the point, I just didn´t know what info to provide. Yes, there is a message ........shockwave plug has crashed, at random, but rather frequently, sometimes within minutes. Did not notice on my which app I was at the time Will tell more when it happens next, Edited June 16, 2016 by THAIPHUKET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jybkk Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Shockwave Plug-in is what is needed on certain sites that uses a certain type of content called 'Flash'. It was very popular in the past (because it provided the same result regardless of the browser) but is riddled with performance and security issues and is now being abandoned. For example Apple iPhones and iPads don't support it. These crashes probably happen on one (or maybe a couple) of specific websites you visit which still use that technology. This article below explains a few ways of trying to fix it: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/internet/how-stop-shockwave-flash-crashing-in-google-chrome-summary-3332967/ However, I would simply recommend you to completely disable this plug-in because chances are it's only used on those sites to display some advertising. http://www.techrepublic.com/article/pro-tip-how-to-disable-flash-in-chrome/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
