Fix "Aw, Snap!" page crashes and other page loading errors

You're getting the "Aw, Snap" error instead of a webpage because Chrome is having problems loading.

Try the fixes below.

Reload the page

Usually, you can reload the page to fix the error.

• Computer: At the top left, click Reload .
• Mobile device: At the top right, tap More   Reload .

If that didn't work...

Step 1: Check your Internet connection

Make sure your device has a connection to network data or Wi-Fi.

Step 2: Clear your cache

Chrome might have information stored that's stopping the page from loading fully.

Clear your cache and cookies, then try reloading the page.

Step 3: Close other tabs, extensions, & apps

Your device may have run out of memory, and can't load the site while also running your apps, extensions, and programs.

To free up memory:

• Close every tab except for the one that’s showing the error message.
• Quit other apps or programs that are running, and pause any app or file downloads.
• On your computer, uninstall unnecessary extensions from Chrome. Learn how to uninstall extensions.

On the erroring tab, try reloading.

Step 4: Restart your device

Programs or apps sometimes get in the way of a page loading correctly.

1. Restart your computer or mobile device.
2. Try loading the page again.

Step 5: Update Chrome

   • If there's an update, you'll see an option to Relaunch.
   • If there are no instructions, your version of Chrome is up-to-date.
