What is Google Chrome?

What it is:

Google’s web browser, one of the most widely used in the world. It is usually installed by the user or bundled with other software.

What it does:

It is used to view websites, email, online video and web applications. It adds itself to startup to launch faster and receive updates on time.

Do you need it, can you remove it:

This is a regular user application, not a Windows component. Keep it if you use it. If you use another browser, you can remove it without any effect on the system.

What to do:

If you don’t need the browser, uninstall it via Settings → Apps or with Reg Organizer, which will also remove its startup entries and leftovers.
