Can not open Chrome neither via Terminal nor GUI on Ubuntu 18.04

By Emma Johnson •

I use Ubuntu 18.04 and cannot open chrome, when I type google-chrome I get following error:

 root@serien:~# google-chrome [10449:10449:0209/013849.529890:ERROR:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(90)]
Running as root without --no-sandbox is not supported.
See root@serien:~#

I use XRDP and when I connect to GUI and click under the Application > internet > chrome it has no efffect nothing will be opened.

I updated but can not open chrome, is any solution here?

Run google chrome as user:

~$ google-chrome

Or as the error message say, use --no-sandbox option as root:

~# google-chrome --no-sandbox
