Question by Disgust · Nov 05, 2011 at 05:00 PM · installchromeweb-player

Web-Player will not install on Google Chrome

I've been trying for hours to get web-player to install on chrome and even though the installer goes through the process with no problems, it keeps on telling me that the unity web-player isn't installed.

It works perfectly on firefox and IE.. but not Chrome. I tried googling for the answer and could not find one that worked.

What could be going wrong? ;/

,in Chrome v42 they have disabled the NPAPI support, but the good news is you can enable it again.

  1. Paste t$$anonymous$$s into chrome: chrome://flags/#enable-npapi

  2. Hit activate on that item

  3. also activate native-client underneath.

  4. Bingo Unity works again :)
