Solution:
Go to Registry Editor
Go to : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\
Double-click at the UpdateDefault or DefaultUpdate
And type 0 to 1
Exit Registry Editor and Go to your browser!
Solution 2.
It is tricky when the issue 2 happens why because when you edit your registry you can't find the Google path in your local_machine Even google chrome is installed by your other user [Not admin user ] .
So
Login to the machine as administrator and sync your browser and it will sync automatically for all the other users
Note: You can't find the registry key if you login as user other than admin
helpful.. it was simple. thanks

ReplyDeleteType in chrome browser chrome://policy
You will see SyncDisabled value true < sync is disable now>
To enable sync follow below steps
Search string "SyncDisabled" in regedit > Edit > search and double click and set value 0. !! done
setting would be differ from pc to pc hence ** is mentioned here \HKEY_USER\S-1*************\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\
go and check value change in chrome://policy/ (sync is enabled now )
value changed to false
Enjoy !!
it will work for all chrome version
This helped. I had to change it in 3 different places.
DeleteAlso, when you're in chrome://policy, hit the "reload policies" button after you make a change to regedit. Reloading the page is not sufficient.
After long search and trying different solution on forums only your solution worked for me. Thank you very much.
