Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I'd advise uninstalling Chrome 32-bit first before installing Chrome 64-bit! :P TAZMINATOR 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I'd uninstall Flash (with the Flash uninstaller tool) and reinstall it too! :P Steven P. and TAZMINATOR 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted August 26, 2014 Administrators Share Posted August 26, 2014 Will it automatically do the 64-bit one? Got a linky? so you are saying don't use the browser Flash? (pepper or whatever). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Well, Pepper Flash in the past has caused crash issues, but you can disable the PPAPI plugin in chrome://plugins As for Flash's links... Uninstaller: http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/support/uninstall_flash_player.exe 32-bit + 64-bit Flash Installer: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe If Flash still crashes, try disabling the Pepper Flash PPAPI plugin and use the NPAPI plugin instead.

derkim Posted August 26, 2014 Author Share Posted August 26, 2014 Pepper Flash is the only thing which works in x64 Chrome with me. Adobe Flash is crashing with an without enabled pepper flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryster Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Unfortunately I can't go to the 64-bit version yet unless EA have pulled their collective fingers out of their proverbial rear end holes and made 64-bit versions of the Battlelog plugins for Battlefield 4. I tried a month to 6 weeks ago and Battlelog just wouldn't install the plugins right, or at least couldn't detect them. Presumably because they weren't actually installed because they require a 32-bit version of Chrome. Wonder what EA will do if the new 64-bit version gets upgraded to automatically by default, and they find everyone with Chrome can no longer play their games?

However, there is a workaround... kinda... give Battlelogium a try. I use it for Battlefield 4! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice find thanks... the description sounds cool though. I'm not familiar with GitHub though, and there's a massive list of things at the top I could potentially download. Is there a nice simple installer for the latest BF4 version of it you could help me to find please? I've ended up so far with just a folder full of other folders, with a single html file at the root.

One note to add though, probably worth mentioning some plugins like Battlelog's web plugins, the WMP plugin for Firefox and QuickTime's plugin won't work as there isn't 64-bit plugins available for these. Flash, Java and Silverlight will work though! Ryster 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Interesting, didn't know that as I don't use it. :p Anyways, anyone experiencing Flash crashes with 64-bit Chrome is running into issue 360206, e.g. the Flash NPAPI plugin crashes. The workaround for this issue is to do the following; 1) Go to chrome://plugins 2) Click the plus details button to expand the plugin details tree. 3) Under Adobe Flash Player, assuming you have the NPAPI plugin installed, you should see two Flash plugins. 4) Disable the NPAPI plugin and restart Chrome. 5) Profit! P.S. If you're experiencing Flash crashes on 64-bit Chrome, make sure you report you're experiencing the issue at the link above! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted August 26, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted August 26, 2014 no issues using the PPAPI flash plugin on 64bit chrome here. have had the beta installed on my HTPC for a few weeks and had no issues w/ flash and yeah I knew about the WMP thing because I used to use it to load a local radio station's web player which uses WMP plugin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Yep, the PPAPI 'Pepper Flash' plugin is solid as a rock stable here too! :D Also worth pointing out that 64-bit binaries are for Windows (and Linux, but those have been out for a long time) only. Google's working on 64-bit Chrome builds for Mac but I don't know when they'll be released to stable (they don't seem to be in the dev channel yet).

revanmj Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Google's working on 64-bit Chrome builds for Mac but I don't know when they'll be released to stable (they don't seem to be in the dev channel yet). They already are in Canary and Dev channels. I'm using 64-bit Chrome dev on my Mac right now. Here is the news about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Ahh, thanks! Chrome 38 is the milestone for 64-bit Mac.

ztnej Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 does chrome shows you 64bits on "About Google Chrome" menu? mine doesn't, only Version 37.0.2062.94 mnevermind, just installed the new version through this link: https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/?platform=win64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 So shouldn't it install itself in "C:\Program Files" folder instead of "C:\Program Files (x86)" folder? In my case in "About Chrome" I see it as 64-bit but it installed itself in "C:\Program Files (x86)" folder ... Weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ztnej Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Yea, i was just wondering the same thing... really weird that it stays on x86 folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Berry Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah, Chrome installs in the x86 folder regardless. I believe it's already known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.stan Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Yeah known and intended, It will change in the future though. https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=380177 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
