I am currently unable to open my Google Chrome browser. Whenever I click on my Google Chrome icon I get the following message:
This webpage is not found
No webpage was found for the web address: chrome-extension://dgpdioedihjhncjafcpgbbjdpbbkikmi/speeddial.html
Error code: ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

The problem started immediately after I ran AdwCleaner to remove unwanted items from my computer (e.g., SearchYa, SearchProtect, Connect, & Conduit). The AdwCleaner report shows that the following two Google-related items were deleted:

Folder Deleted : C:UsersBillAppDataLocalGoogleChromeUserDataDefaultExtensionsdgpdioedihjhncjafcpgbbjdpbbkikmi
Key Deleted : HKCUSoftwareGoogleChromeExtensionspbjikboenpfhbbejgkoklgkhjpfogcam

I presume that these deletions may have caused my problem.
I even downloaded Google Chrome again, thinking there was a good chance that doing so might fix things; however, it didn't.
I would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who might be able to help me restore Google Chrome. Is it possible that restoring the deleted Google-related folder and/or key might solve my problem?
Thank you.

Important: Chrome will be removing support for Chrome Apps on all platforms. Chrome browser and the Chrome Web Store will continue to support extensions. Read the announcement and learn more about migrating your app.

Chrome Apps let you use HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript to deliver an experience comparable to a native application.

Why build a Chrome App? #

By building a Chrome App, as opposed to going with a traditional web app or a native mobile app, you expand your potential audience and extend your development capability.

Expand your potential audience #

When you write a Chrome App, as opposed to an app that runs natively on a particular operating system, you immediately make your app available to a much wider audience.

Where

To any desktop

Instead of writing and maintaining separate applications for Windows, OS X and Linux, you can write a single application that runs anywhere Chrome runs. This includes Windows, Linux, and OS X.

To mobile devices [via Cordova]

Using Chrome Apps for Mobile (MCA), you can deploy your applications to mobile and target hardware features only available on Android and IOS platforms. Google chrome app for laptop.

And of course, to a Chromebook

Writing a Chrome App is the ONLY way to have your app installed on a Chromebook. Chromebooks are appealing, inexpensive, low maintenance devices that provide a full web experience.

Extend your development capability #

You might be thinking, 'If I write a standard web application, I can run it on any platform that has a web browser.' Of course, this is absolutely right, but remember that Chrome Apps extend your development capacity beyond what you can do with traditional web apps:

  • Chrome Apps can integrate seamlessly into the desktop and look more like desktop applications than traditional web apps.
  • Chrome Apps for Desktop have no omnibox (address bar) and tab strip like normal browser-based apps, because like native desktop apps, they don't live in a browser.
  • The Chrome App Launcher makes it easy for users to find and start your Chrome App.
  • OS X users can use the integrated spotlight search to find and start your app.
  • Chrome Apps for Desktop can access the host computer's file system and make use of hardware features (like USB, Bluetooth and attached human interface devices).

The best way to see what Chrome Apps look like is to install some.

Who should build Chrome Apps? #

Everyone! But some sectors have a special interest in Chrome Apps.

Device manufacturers

Show My Chrome Apps

The cross platform nature of Chrome Apps makes writing device drivers less painful. A device manufacturer only needs to write one application for configuring their device and it will run on any device.

Educators

Chromebooks are an inexpensive, low-maintenance option for bringing laptops into every classroom. Chrome Apps make teaching easy with easy to install applications that run natively on Chromebooks. For example:

Health care providers

One pediatric service has so far saved tens of thousands of dollars using Chrome Apps on Chromebooks.
