GoogleChromePortable 34 is the last version that will run on my XP (SP3) computer. The 35 version appears to install OK (no error messages), but attempting to run it gives the usual exception message that a problem has been encountered and needs to close, wants to report it to MS, etc.
It seems that this is caused because Google Chrome has cut off support for older processors. My version 34 has a line at top of browser saying: "This computer will soon stop receiving Google Chrome updates because its hardware is no longer supported. Learn more." Clicking the Learn More link goes to:
https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95411
According to that page, XP (SP2+) is still supported, but an Intel Pentium 4 or later processor is required. I guess that excludes my AMD Athlon XP 2400+ @2.00GHz, 1.00 GB RAM, which still works very well otherwise.
Bummer...
I'd say switch to Firefox. They make a point to support a wider range of processors.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
