Google to the rescue

Chrome Cracked

Google is working on a fix for an issue that prevents the 64-bit version of its Chrome browser from running correctly in the newest Windows 10 Preview Build (10525). In the absence of a fix, Chrome users are complaining of various annoyances, such as webpages not loading at all and tabs crashing.

The issue doesn't seem to affect the 32-bit version of Chrome, just the 64-bit build.

"We have the problem confirmed and someone is working on it, so additional 'me to' comments are a distraction at this point," a Chrome developer said. "Please just star the issue if you want to convey that you are affected, and if we have any questions or need additional feedback we'll post a comment.

Also, please remember that this kind of temporary breakage is expected for users on the Windows 10 fast ring. So, we definitely appreciate your assistance in tracking down these problems, but if you're not comfortable dealing with disruptions and workarounds, then the fast ring might not be for you."

Build 10525 is the first preview version of Windows 10 since Microsoft launched the OS to the public in late July. Microsoft switched to a Windows-as-a-Service (WaaS) model with Windows 10, which means there will be more frequent feature and security upgrades on an ongoing basis rather than monolithic upgrades every couple of years.

While more Preview Builds are imminent, Microsoft said it's "evaluating the Windows Insider rings, and considering whether we should make changes there." Its decision will be based in part on the feedback of Windows Insiders.
