Stay away from anything that has Google in it. Chrome is like Mossad, MI6, ISI and RAW, all in one!

If you are not too young or too old, and not technically challenged, ditch your windows machine and either go for OS X or any Linux based platform.

If you have no option but to stick to Windows, download Firefox.

And I'm technologically challenged so I dunno how to instal Windows let alone installing other operating systems ! :(

@EyanKhan Use Firefox, its way better than chrome for several reasons. If you have saved passwords and bookmarks, then you can export them to a file, then reinstall chrome and import those saved passwords and bookmarks again.

Your browsing and search history however will be gone. This problem happens when you have tons of material in your profile i.e. you have years long search and browsing history that chrome no longer is able to load properly, hence it crashes.

There are several manual solutions, but they can be a headache if you have that much history saved in your chrome profile. I used to clear unwanted browsing history manually after a week or so to keep it optimized when I used chrome long ago.

Google how to take backup of your chrome profile and how to restore it. But it won't save your problem since you have large history files, if you will restore them on new chrome installation, it will again start to crash. Just backupp your saved passwords and bookmarks and sacrifice your brwosing and search history.

Chrome simply keeps running in background sometimes even when you close it. Go to task manager, switch to processes tab, and right click at every chrome.exe process and select end process.

This is where chrome sucks, if you are using firefox, you will see only one process called firefox.exe no matter how many firefox windows and tabs you've opened at a time. But chrome create each separate process for each new tab or window, it simply floods your process with multiple processes.

There are several reasons, one I've mentioned above. If you aren't gonna go deep into technical things, and if you don't care much about what is happening at the background in your system, then chrome is best for you since it offers best speed to users. But if you are concerned about these things, then firefox is the way to go.

Above all, FireFox is best browser for web developers and software engineers, who are going to do a lot of trouble shooting and debugging on websites. That is why I prefer firefox the most as a programmer.
