Chrome - now in 64 bit flavour too!

[TeaLeaf]

I had that before when I had both the embedded flash and an adobe flash enabled within Chrome.   The internal worked fine, so I disabled the external one which fixed the problem.

As for the differences, other than personal preference as to style, I'd look at some of the comparisons on the web to see what's under the hood and makes them different.   There's nowt wrong with using the browser you prefer the look of though!

sometimes i get a pop up saying a video plug in has stopped working but not much.
why call it canary tho?
chrome64 would have been better.

Development code name

As Kreg said, Canary is a separate install of the Development version, the full release code is not yet out, hence keeping it as a different install to allow both during development.

wikipedia

"Canary" release; the name refers to using canaries in coal mines, so if a change "kills" Chrome Canary, they will block it from the developer build. Canary will be "the most bleeding-edge official version of Chrome and somewhat of a mix between Chrome dev and the Chromium snapshot builds". Canary releases run side-by-side with any other channel; it is not linked to the other Google Chrome installation and can therefore run different synchronization profiles, themes, and browser preferences

64-bit has evolved from the canary yellow dev versions to version 37 which is a release build.

If you want the 64 bit release you need to re-download Chrome 64 from here:

https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/?platform=win64

Install the downloaded file and you'll get:
Chrome Version 37.0.2062.94 (64-bit)
