If Google Chrome is failing to download any files, giving an insufficient permissions error, there's a simple fix. The error is just what it says; for whatever reason,.
I recently noticed this message that appears every time i open my google chrome browser. It say that my Profile could not be opened correctly and that some of the functions may not be available. At first i just ignored it, hoping that i could fix it in the system preference or search some answers online. I noticed that all of my bookmarks on my bookmark tabs turned so weird. The real icons were gone and were replaced by (gray globe) icons. My history options are gone, and the predictive text of websites you currently visited when you type in the address bar were all gone.
I emailed a representative from Macfixit and here is what he told me to do. It worked perfectly: The problem is likely caused by the profile directory having some corrupt items in it that cannot be properly accessed or configured. Go to the /username/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/ directory and remove the folder called 'Default.' Relaunch Chrome (you may have to set up some aspects of it again) and see if the problems persist. If you cannot find the Library folder in your home directory, press the Option key and select it from the 'Go' menu in the Finder.
