Google's Chrome browse using a sandboxing technology which is not currently compatible with ThinApp (which also provides sandboxing)

http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/sandbox

 

 

I found you can disable Chrome's sandboxing mechanism using "--no-sandbox" command-line parameter and then it works under ThinApp. So here is a temporary solution:

 

1. During packaging process, after installing Google Chrome, add an extra shortcut to the startmenu that contains the Target command "Chrome.exe --no-sandbox"

2. Make sure to select this EXE as user-accessible entry point

 

Optionally, if you have the package already captured you can edit package.ini like this

 

http://Google Chrome.exe

ReadOnlyData=bin\Package.ro.tvr

Source=%Local AppData%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

CommandLine=%Local AppData%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --no-sandbox

WorkingDirectory=%Local AppData%\Google\Chrome\Application
