This happened when testing out the chrome plugin on http://developers.google.com

@vkaracic do you have any chrome plugins installed? Do you have any options deselected on the extension?

Thanks for the feedback, error should be fixed in #1218

First you need to remove ARC from your system.
After removing ARC just run the following command using terminal

$ sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-stable
$ rm ~/.config/google-chrome/ -rf

the first command removes the package while the second command will remove custom settings such as plugins, etc.
also run the following command in terminal

$ sudo apt-get -f autoremov

Now just make sure chrome completely remove or not.
go to terminal and run the following command

$ google-chrome --version

This should not give you the version of chrome

now you need to reinstall latest chrome version
google-chrome-stable is available on a 3rd Party Repository: Google Chrome (for Stable).

Follow the instruction for installation:

Add Key:

wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -

Set repository:

echo 'deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list

Install package:

sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable

now check the version of your chrome again

$ google-chrome --version

Now you just intsall ARC from google store

please write comment if found any bugs
