    Problem with runing chrome browser.

    Hello ,

    I am facing a problem running chrome browser on my OS ( Kali the latest release ).
    The installation process went smoothly but when i try to open the browser it just doesn't show up (its like it stuck in the background)& when i click alt + tab (for switching between apps) i can see the chrome browser.
    I tried to search online and people advice to run the browser without sandbox by adding --no-sandbox to the /usr/bin/google-chrome file, but it didn't work too.
    can anybody help with such a problem ?

    Thank you!

    If your running it in a VM then give it more RAM, Chrome is a notorious RAM hog.
    Have you fully updated your system?

    Uninstall your chrome browser and download and install from official google chrome browser:
    https://www.google.com/chrome/?brand...B&gclsrc=aw.ds

    Browse your download google chrome directory, click or double click to install with GUI software.
    $ sudo apt update
    $ apt search google-chrome
    $ sudo apt install google-chrome-stable

    Install chrome also automatically add google-chrome repo in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
    so you can update chrome with:
    $ sudo apt update
    $ sudo apt upgrade
