Chrome not working after installation of JDK - windows

I installed jdk-8u101-windows-x64 on my Windows 10 x64 in order to proceed with installing a Netbeans 8.1 all in one package, and after JDK was installed the system immediately restarted.
When the system rebooted, Chrome stopped working. Loading any page or even settings page now displays "Aw, Snap! Something went wrong while displaying this web page. Learn more - Reload".
Clicking Learn more or reloading does nothing. I tried disabling Defender and enabling again, didn't work.
Reinstalling, or restarting the PC multiple times didn't work.
Has anyone come across this?
Thanks.

I also have a Windows 10 x64 OS and just tried installing the JDK. It was JDK 8 Update 101 and my Google Chrome version is 53.0.2785.143. It did not force me to restart but I went ahead and restarted and when I booted back up I did not see the same issues that you were referring to.
This leads me to believe that it's something specific with your machine and nothing with the JDK or Chrome itself. It's possible that you have some chrome extension that is causing problems.
To fix the issue you're having first I would download and install the Chrome Cleanup Tool. If that doesn't fix the issue, you can try launching Chrome in 'safe-mode' like so:
Right Click, create shortcut, rename, right click go to properties and add - -incognito- with out the - in the target field on shortcut tab. Then apply and ok
Once you are able to launch Chrome in incognito mode, then you should be able to delete the extensions via the settings.
If that still doesn't work, then you will likely have to delete the user data for Chrome in your AppData and registry manually. To delete your AppData go to:
C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data and delete the Default folder then relaunch Chrome.
To remove the extensions from the registry, Open regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Google\Chrome\Extensions and delete the keys there.

Sounds like broken Java libraries...
Try uninstalling Netbeans, JDK, Chrome, in that order.
Then installing Chrome again, try it out, then JDK, try Chrome, then Netbeans, try Chrome.
Also check that you have 32bit JDK and that your preferred Java is set to 32bit since Chrome is 32bit.

Installing MagicDraw “libjvm.dylib” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified on mac M2 pro

I installed MagicDraw 190_sp3 on my mac but it couldn't be opened. When I try to open it shows the error that the developer couldn't be verified. Can anyone help me in this regard, please?
Is your macOS showing an error alert like below?
If so, your app is not signed and notarized.
If you’re certain that an app you want to install is from a trustworthy source and hasn’t been tampered with, you can temporarily override your Mac security settings to open it.
If you still want to open an app for which the developer cannot be verified, open System Preferences. Go to Security & Privacy. Make sure Allowed apps downloaded from is set to App Store and identified developers. Click the Open Anyway button in the General pane to confirm your intent to open or install the app.
The warning prompt reappears, and if you're absolutely sure you want to open the app anyway, you can click Open.
The app is now saved as an exception to your security settings, and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it, just as you can any authorized app.
See this KB from apple for details
Thanks for your answer kakaiikaka.
I did all of those steps but it was still showing the problem, then I found out the problem was with my JDK version on my JVM. So, I installed JDK version 8 and again tried to open this and it worked as a charm!

Downloading Selenium Chrome Webdriver not working macos

I'm using selenium with python. I'm pretty sure my browser updated when I restarted my computer. When I ran my code it gave me an error saying the driver was not up to date with the browser. I went here to download the most recent version. I am using MacOS BTW. When I launched the executable it just gets stuck on "ChromeDriver was started successfully."
I would launch the executable and leave it there for 10 minutes and it would just get stuck on this. How can I fix this?
You'll have to download the same version of the driver as your chrome version.
To check your chrome version:
Click on the 3 dots in the top right corner.
Hover over the help tab and click on About Google Chrome.
You will be able to see your chrome version. Since my chrome version is 88, I would have to download driver version 88.
If you just updated chrome, your version might be 89.
I used to just run the executable but I guess that doesn't work? So according to this post you have to move it manually to the usr/local/bin folder. Going there I deleted the old chromedriver and replaced it with the new one.

Could not determine the installation package com.company.appName

I can't launch my app anymore on Android. The iOS counterpart seems to be fine.
The full error is:
ADB0000: Could not determin the installation path for package.com.company.appname.
'adb shell pm path com.company.appname' returned.
It was working. I pulled some changes from the repo, none of which should have affected any app properties. Actually it was initially launching, but I was getting some odd behavior within the app, so I uninstalled the whole thing off of my phone. Now I cannot launch it at all. What I could find about this error was that my AndroidManifest.xml might have a typo, but I couldn't find anything that stuck out. And like I said, there shouldn't have been any changes in there recently. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Steps I have already taken:
1. Clean and rebuild
2. restart VS
3. delete obj and bin folders
4. search for solution on here and xamarin forums
UPDATE:
I just successfully launched it on another android device. So it seems to be a problem with my Pixel 2 XL. How do I make sure all traces of the app are gone so I can start fresh?
This usually happens when you have more than one user in an Android device (I still cannot figure out why is this).
As mentioned in the comment by using the adb uninstall full.package.name command it will uninstall the app.
But there's another way which does not require command line or nothing related to that.
If you go to the Settings -> Apps and Notifications on the Android device you will be able to uninstall it from there.
Let's use the UnoQuickStart.Droid app as example here. As you can see it's already in the same state as it was yours.
Once in the App details both Uninstall and Force Stop are disabled. But do you see those 3 dots image at the right upper corner? Click on it.
This will bring you a context menu with a single option "Uninstall for all users". You can click on it with confidence.
As expected, a warning message telling you what's gonna happen. Just click "Ok".
As you can see the App is not longer installed and you will now be able to install it again.
Hope this helps.-
As per apineda's instructions, using adb unistall com.company.appname fixed the problem. I was able to get to the ADB location by navigating through Visual Studio -> Tools -> Android -> Android ADB Command Prompt.
Before I did that, I looked at the App list for my phone, which listed the app, but apparently not installed for this user. The Uninstall and Force Stop buttons were disabled and several of the fields just said loading... or something like that.

An error occured while attempting to download the container from application Xcode

While running my app on iPhone, I needed to view the database contents. So I selected Devices in Xcode and chose my device. Thereafter, i selected my app and clicked on the Settings button which shows 3 options: Show container, Download container and Remove container. On clicking the Download container option, I was asked where I want to store the container. After selecting the location, I am getting the following error: An error occured while attempting to download the container from application "MyApp".....
On selecting Show container option, a list opens up but there is no file inside it.
The same problem occurs with other apps too that I run using Xcode.
Any ideas as to why this happens and how to fix it?
I just rebooted my iPhone. That seems to fix it! Really weird, but works.
I have been having the issue every now and then especially after the phone has been connected to Mac and Xcode for about an hour.
Sometimes, just rebooting the phone isn't good enough, you'll also have to quit Xcode and start again after rebooting the phone!
I also had this problem yesterday, and the solution was a mismatched version of iOS 10 and Xcode 7. After I did the App Store upgrade to Xcode 8, I was able to download successfully.
In my case the issue was due to the fact that the version installed was a release version.
After installing the "Debug" version, the download worked fine.

How to uninstall Xcode 6 and remove all related files

I need to completely reinstall Xcode 6 and remove all the files and settings with it.
I know that it is uninstalled so that you go to mission control, long click on it and then click on the X button, like on iPhone.
I also know that you can drag it to trash from applications.
But after all those, when I install it again through AppStore and open the last project I was working on, Xcode will open the project on exactly the same class where i t was shut down and even show the last error I faced!
I don't want that. That means that some User Preferences are still saved somewhere and I want to get rid of them as I have never ever had Xcode installed on my Mac.
How to do that?
You can use several uninstall programs like you would uninstall any other Mac application.
So some examples might be App Cleaner or Clean My Mac.
Hope that helps :)
