If you post the code you are using, I am sure someone can help get this working for you...

Chrome is usually installed in the user's application data folder:

My link in XP is: "C:\Documents and Settings\John\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

In Win7 it would be: "C:\Users\John\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

Replace "John" with your username... using the correct path as the link may fix this for you.

There is no "Local Settings" folder in Windows 7.

So it would be: C:\Users\John\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\chrome.exe
