Syncing in Google Chrome May Cause Crashes With 2-Step Verification

If you’ve turned on Google’s 2-step verification as we recommended, you may have noticed that since then your installation of Google Chrome crashes and/or many of the individual tabs crash.

The likely reason for this is that you have Chrome’s sync feature turned on, and unfortunately, that does not yet work with 2-step verification and therefore, syncing won’t work in any case, so you may as well turn it off.

You can do that by clicking on the wrench icon in the top-right corner of any Chrome window and going to Options -> Personal Stuff -> Sync and then clicking the Stop Syncing button (see screenshot below).
