Could You explain, what this sentence means. In other words, what does "can not install alternate offline installer with auto update feature" mean.
Do You want install the same Google Chrome (or what ever other version) to the same computer? And if it's true, than what exactly what You want install?
If I try to guess what can be done at all, then must say that two versions of Chrome with update feature cannot be installed in the same computer. In earlier times, it was possible to install Beta, Dev and Canary versions, but generally without the upgrade feature. I haven't tested it lately.
In general, Chrome autoupdate only works if the program is on a 64-bit computer installed to this directory
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Google\Chrome
and if You have 32-bit computer, it must be in folder
%ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome
If You want install to some different directory, the updater will never work.

Actually there are two links given above one without auto update feature and one with auto update feature
So I tried to install one with auto update feature which is not installing in my system
Then I downloaded enterprise version which is a .msi installer
It installed perfectly, now the problem is whenever I am trying to check for updates error code 3 is coming which says update can not start

Then there are such options:

You've had any version of Google Chrome installed with the update feature and it hasn't been properly uninstalled, ie removed. If so, then remember - any Google Chrome must be uninstalled before installing any other version and for uninstalling must be used the same installer. Never use any other uninstaller, if You have already used whatever other uninstaller, You can reinstall only the same version what there was previously installed and anything else not possible to install. Even any Revo or IObit Uninstaller or what ever other uninstaller do not use never for uninstalling any of Chrome product.

There is a problem with your computer and the chrome .exe file cannot be decrypted.

Why it is possible, that .msi installer works? It's because .msi installer also has Repair feature and Your previous version will first repaired, then unistalled and after that updated, ie installed new version.

So what should I do then, I do not understand clearly

Look, this is a very difficult question that no one cannot answer, because no one knows what's really done on your computer, what's been done there in the past, and what the condition is. Only You know, but if even You know everything, maybe there is nothing possible to fix.

If you have problems that You can't fix, there is always one great option - do a new clean installation and you have all the problems gone.
In the future, never make any changes until you have understood exactly what you are doing and what the result will be after this doing.

My opinion is that you have done a lot of home chemistry experiments there and used a lot of household chemistry, and now is the time to put things right. In future do not test any kind of home-brew on Your main computer and use it only for work.

Your main computer should not be for experimentation.

Install on it only the things you really need and nothing else.

Don't experiment there nothing.

So. Decide for yourself whether you are looking for mistakes and trying to fix them till the end of your life, or is time to fix your computer.
Choice is yours!
Click to expand...

You are right, I have always done experiments with my system but I do maintain it on a regular basis
All the things in my system are working perfectly and smoothly
The only problem which I am facing right now is that chrome can not check updates by itself
I have reinstalled it many times, scanned my system with antimalware program, but only the google update service is not working which I don't know why
If you have any solution to this problem, kindly provide your inputs, any help will be appreciated

@ashish1989
If Google Chrome update really is the only thing that doesn't work, you have two options:

agree with what is and update manually

or alternatively, remove absolutely everything related to Google Chrome (remember - absolutely all), use the .msi installer to uninstall current Chrome, ie if right-clicking will open a menu, select Uninstall option. If You'll get any notice about not possible uninstal, select Repair and repair current installation. Restar Chrome, if needed also computer and try again to Uninstall. After this is done, restart computer, clean the registry and try to remove as much Chrome registry keys as possible and then reinstall Chrome and it should work.
This is the only thing that helps.

I can't help you anymore, this is all what is possible.
PS, sorry, I forgot...
I forgot one thing. You may have a program installed that prevents automatic updates. For example, Wise Care 365 Wise protection (you need to enable updates there) or Glarysoft MalwareHunter - same thing - you need to enable updates.
There may still be more such programs, but these two were the first to remember me.

I always eset antivirus with windows firewall
And used .msi installer but no effect
I think you are right I must agree to as what it is

Just curious, wanted to know from where do you manage to find such download links with auto update and without auto update feature and how come do you know that these links have auto update feature or not

If you read the first post in this thread you will see there are direct links there!
