I just have the same issue with you. I upgraded to MacOs Sierra and downloaded chrome.dmg. Everything is good but after the installation, chrome browser keeps crashing. I cannot open it. The icon shows up on the dock jus for less 1 second and it quit, disappear from the dock.i don't why. Google Chrome is the solution that over 63% of the world turns to and with good reason. Mac users have distinguished taste and as such, expect high quality in their hardware and software products. Google Chrome delivers this to Mac users with its low CPU usage, reliability, and overall browsing experience. Dark mode comes to Google Chrome on MacOS. Google brings 2019's trendiest mode to its Mac browser. March 13, 2019 10:13 a.m. Apple's next iOS update. Google Chrome in all its versions was the undeniable king of browsers. It's still a great option and a trusty reliable if you need a browser for an Android phone. If we sound a little less than enthusiastic, however, it's probably because there are 2 little points that steal some of the shine.
