Apt purge chrome and drop the chrome repo. Download fresh and rename/purge the chrome profile?

That's a little scorched earth I know but it would help you sort out root cause.

Thanks to Matthew and Michael Butash for suggestions.

I did a new system update:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

And I have tried removing and reinstalling chrome,
but it still won't work.

Everything else seems to be working okay now.

Not sure how to do the "journalctl" thing.

Firefox works fine, but I still hope to get chrome working.

Any other suggestions?
