I am using the latest Chrome browser ( Version 41.0.2272.89 m (64-bit)

Whenever I try to open a link that is embedded in a received email, I get a pop-up as below:

chrome stopped working.JPG

Any idea what causes this, and how to fix it? Windows does not offer any advice re: a solution

In same vain, try opening an incognito window, and see if same problem occurs in incognito mode.

Also might want to try rebooting, see if problem continues. Uninstall and re-install Chrome, see if problem continues.

Just an update on the Chrome browser problems I had. None of the suggested solutions helped.
So I uninstalled Chrome and downloaded & reinstalled Chrome again. No more issues as I detailed in my opening post. All is now OK
