Error 0x80040905 when updating to Chrome 56 via chrome://help |
|||
Issue descriptionUpdates to Chrome 56 via chrome://help (so-called "on-demand" updates) fail with this message: "An error occurred while checking for updates: Installation failed. Please try again (error code 7: 0x80040905 -- system level)." Refreshing the page results in Chrome indicating that it needs to be relaunched to update. Clicking to relaunch yields an up-to-date Chrome 56. The problem here is that a change was made to the way updates are delivered to Chrome. A UI glitch results in Chrome thinking that the update failed when, in fact, it succeeded. This is a one-time error for on-demand updates from pre-56 to 56 and later.

Hi. 0x80040902: 50 is being tracked in issue 686645 . You can download and run a fresh installer from https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html to fix this. We're working on resolving this so that no extra work is needed. Thanks for your patience.

I have an enterprise environment and I'm getting multiple users with upgrade issues. On some PCs, when I get to the computer, chrome.exe is running in the background and no browser windows will open. If I kill all chrome.exe processes, I can usually get chrome working again. If a normal user is on help-about and chrome gets the code 7 error, I've had to go as far as uninstalling chrome, reboot, and reinstall chrome. This morning two users had chrome in a state where DNS was not resolving, they could get to sites by IP only. The fix again, uninstall chrome, reboot, reinstall. These seemed to occur first last month and now again.

I had this error, removed and ran a fresh install. Im now on version 56.0.2924.87 which has print preview issues across every system running this version. Keep your version 55 for now.

Hi. We had an outage on the 12th, which has since been resolved. Are you still seeing this error? |
