Google chrome not launching

cn flag

I am not able to launch chrome in Ubunut 18.04.3. When I tried to launch it from terminal I am getting the below error

$ google-chrome
[0830/111137.812090:ERROR:file_io_posix.cc(207)] open /home/praveen/.config/google-chrome/Crash Reports/settings.dat: Permission denied (13)

FYI: If you are actually using 18.04.3; you're ~18 months behind on upgrades & security fixes; as an updated 18.04 system will report itself as 18.04.5. You can view https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2020/02/12/ubuntu-18-04-4-lts-released/ for the date of the ISO release, but installed systems upgrade to that version more than a week prior to the ISO release date.

Fix permission for ~/.config folder with

sudo chown -R praveen:praveen /home/praveen/.config

and reboot.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
