- There may be many reason for Chrome Crash. One of the important reason that we found is the usage of more tabs at a time. If you have the habit of loading more and more tabs at a time, Chrome may stop working. Each and every tab were using some amount of memory and finally reach in a crash.
- Another important reason is using multiple Chrome users. Chrome has an awesome feature that, it can handle multiple users at a time.
