Chrome is gone, but now when I click on a desktop shortcut I get a window asking what program I want to use to open that page. I have tried to delete that shortcut, open the page and issue a new shortcut but the same 'what program window' opens. I click on Internet Explorer and make sure the box is checked to always use that program...no luck I have not tried my favorites yet but if it's the same way wuth those I'll be crazy! Thanks so much for your help!!!!

I had the same problem. Go to Tools on the menu bar in Internet Explorer. There should be an option underneath Internet Options to "restore original internet defaults". All my desktop shortcuts are working now.
Hope this helps. :)
Restore ur system to one month ago.
I haven;lt used Chrome, but for the issue you have cant oyu:
1. right-clcik on the shortcut
2. Choose Properties
3. At the top OPEN WITH: does it say Internet Explorer? If not click on the change button and choose IE (or any other browser you use, FireFox ,..etc)
Chrome may of modified this setting. Changing it for this URL should change the association for others as well.
Good Luck - sorrty if misunderstood the question

Dummie me!!!!! Why didn't I think of that? Thanks a bunch!!
I tried that with no luck. I now have a similar problem with my wife's laptop running Vista. By the way, I corrected the problem with mine by doing a system restore. I'm going to post the other issue.
Okay...I stumbled on to this fix for my problem and it worked. Go in to Internet Options-Settings then check your default browser setting. I simply changed mine to Yahoo from Google and BINGO! back to normal.
I have the exact same issue.
Does this only happen when you want to open links to web pages / web pages?
my computer is opening to msn.com and ask.com rather than google, when I click on my google shortcut
