Chrome Version : canary build on Win7 x64

I have Canary build installed in two computers and I can’t start them!!!!
It happened just now! Does anybody know anything about it or this is a
one-in-a-trillion coincidence and happens only to those two computers.

Clarification: I can’t start Chrome not the computers

Guys it cannot be a coincidence. In both computers the problem holds even
when I uninstall and reinstall. In the beginning I can restart the browser
but from the moment I install an extension and try to restart, that's it…
the browser dies.
If I delete the UserData then the browser restarts creating a new set of
UserData but it fails again after a while.
Have you managed to reproduce the issue or I should be looking for ghosts
in my house?

Adding some additional detail...

Using WinXP and having the same issue. I believe Canary completed an auto
update, and after, I cannot launch Canary.

In the SxS folder I have both 12.0.724.0 and 12.0.726.0 sub-folders.

When I try to launch Canary, a chrome.exe process does show briefly in task
manager, but then it closes itself.

message, warning or anything then closed itself.

C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome SxS and start Chrome
Canary"

It works.

It works. However, after I enabled Google sync.
It won't start again.

I think its google sync paraphrase encryption problem again. Coz it keep
asking me for paraphrase even I didnt set that b4.
I have to disable google sync from account dashboard.

----------
OK, the problem was on my end. Somehow because I manually updated my
firewall did not recognize it as another version of the same program, and
was blocking it.
