Update: The Symantec Forum has a fix for the issue with a minor registry change, this will mean that you can use both Google Chrome as well as Symantec Endpoint Client.
One of our readers sent in a email where Google Chrome installed properly on his system, but while loading the site, there was the browser threw a error “Aw Snap, something went wrong”.
On researching the issue we found it to be a problem with Symantec Endpoint Client, the solution would be to disable Symantec first and run Google Chrome. It is not advisable to uninstall the anti virus software though and you should wait till either Google or Symantec releases a patch for it.
