Hello,

Does anyone have a solution? Every time I try to open the Google Chrome app on my Mac, the same message always appears: "unable to open the Google Chrome app."

Configuration: iPhone / Safari 13.1.1

    Hello

    Suggestion: use Apple's Safari browser to reinstall Chrome from Google's official website

    Hello,

    Uninstall Chrome using the AppCleaner program (delete all files that will be displayed).

    Drag Chrome into AppCleaner.

    Then reinstall Chrome.

    Good evening,

    To uninstall Chrome, you need to:
    - go to the Applications folder and drag the Chrome icon to the Trash
    - delete the directory "~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome"
    To access this directory from Finder, you need to:
    - click once on the "Go" menu while holding down the Alt key: the "Library" submenu should then appear.
    - select this "Library" submenu: a window will then open
    - open the "Application Support" folder and then the "Google" folder.
    - locate the "Chrome" folder and drag it to the Trash.
    - restart the Mac
    - reinstall Chrome from the official Google website
