My adblock extension was acting buggy, so I uninstalled it. When I went to reinstall it, it got stuck on "Checking". And it never moves past it. Whenever I try to restart the download, it says that I already have it downloading.

I've tried resetting things, I've restarted my browser, signed off of my google account. Everything I can think of and that I've seen suggested.

There is a discussion in the adblock forum about this issue. I don't know if you have already seen this, but I think it is worth looking at; as there are several suggestions on how to resolve this.

  1. Try the development version.
  2. Change the download location specified in chrome.
  3. Check if you are logged with your users in store.

Hope this helps.

If anyone reads this, try turning off "Use Hardware Acceleration" in your chrome settings. Use search to find it on settings menu. Fixed the issue on my VM.

Steps to resolve:

  1. Completely stop Chrome (you'll need to exit Chrome in your task bar even after closing the Chrome window).
  2. Rename your Extension State directory to Extension State.bak.
  3. Restart Chrome.

Below is the path of the Extension State directory on Windows:

C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extension State

See Where does Chrome store extensions? for the Extension State path on other operating systems.
