Google Chrome - "Missing File Error - Unable to Find Locale Data Files - Please Reinstall" :
The blunder you're seeing is basic - Google Chrome can't stack since it doesn't approach records required to make them run.
While this can be caused by various potential issues, the center of the issue is that your chrome.exe application is either absent or inaccurately named, keeping Chrome from having the capacity to stack.
To settle the issue, you have to guarantee you can either recoup the lost record, or repair any of the harmed references it might have. There are various potential approaches to do this, which I will detail in this article.
Causes
Tainted Files
Contrary Version
Copy Files With Incorrect Names
Harmed Plugins and so forth
The essential driver of the mistake is that chrome.exe is blocked off.
This will either be caused by the document being renamed (most likely because of a current framework reestablish), or the record being adulterated. In either occurrence, there are two approaches to determine it - either rename the document or re-introduce Chrome (which will consequently rename it).
There are likewise other potential causes, for example, Windows not having specific DLL records accessible, or your PC experiencing infections among different issues. The means to determine the issue are to work through the different potential arrangements, guaranteeing that every potential issue is settled.
Here's the ticket...
Stage 1 - Rename Chrome.exe
The initial step is to rename chrome.exe to guarantee Windows can read it.
To do this, you have to peruse to the accompanying organizer:
C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\
Inside here - particularly in the event that you've completed a current System Restore - you should discover a reference to chrome.exe. In the event that this document exists, there might be another called new_chrome.exe.
On the off chance that there is another chrome document in the envelope, you'll have to expel it by choosing it and squeezing erase. This will send it to the reuse container, where it will have the capacity to be reestablished if its expulsion does not settle the Chrome blunder.
In the wake of doing this, restart your PC and check whether Chrome will work once more. If not, continue onto the subsequent stage.
Stage 2 - Reinstall Chrome
The most solid approach to take care of this issue is to reinstall Chrome.
This not just guarantees that Windows has all the right settings all together, yet in addition replaces any harmed or undermined Chrome records which might prompt potential blunders.
To do this, you ought to take after the means laid out beneath:
Snap onto "Begin" > "Control Panel" > "Include/Remove Programs" (Windows 7)
Right-Click "Begin" > select "Applications and Features" (Windows 10)
From here, you'll have to look through the rundown of utilizations until the point that you discover Google Chrome. After right-tapping the symbol, select "Uninstall". This will evacuate the application, after which you ought to restart your PC.
After restart, you'll have the capacity to download a crisp adaptation of Chrome by utilizing the default Microsoft web program (Internet Explorer or Edge) which will enable you to introduce the most progressive rendition of the application.
On the off chance that, after this procedure, Chrome does not work, it recommends you have a more profound issue with Windows. The fix for this could be to utilize a registry cleaner to repair any conceivably harmed/missing registry mistakes (far-fetched), or guarantee that Windows is running effectively by refreshing it.
Stage 3 - Update Windows
On the off chance that the mistake holds on, you should refresh your framework.
To do this, you have to take after these means:
In Windows 7, tap on "Begin" > "Control Panel" > "Framework And Security" > "Windows Update" > "Check for Updates"
In Windows 10, tap on the "Begin" catch, select the "Settings" gear-tooth from the left "charms" menu and after that tap on "Refresh and Security"
On the two frameworks, you at that point need to click "Check for Updates"
In the event that the blunders persevere in the wake of following the above advances, you'll need to take a gander at settling any potential issues that Windows may have with its center settings. To do this, you should pick up the supposition of an accomplished master, who'll be in a greatly improved position to give a balanced indicative of the framework.
