Google Chrome: Fix “No data received” Error

Google Chrome: Fix “No data received” Error

July 10, 2018 by Mitch Bartlett Leave a Comment

I was recently supporting a person who would type a username and password for almost any website in Google Chrome, and would receive an error that said:

“No data received. Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data. Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.“

Chrome No Data Received error

This problem occurred only on HTTPS websites. I tried several things including clearing the cache and cookies. Many forums recommend uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome, but that didn’t work either.

I did find a few strange extensions and plugins installed. When I disabled them, they seemed to remain enabled in Chrome. This was not normal behavior. It was time to check for malware.


Fix 1

Run a scan with the free version of Malwarebytes. In my case, it detected “Trojan BHO”, which was infecting the Chrome browser. Malwarebytes removed the trojan successfully. After a restart, Chrome was like new. We could now access HTTPS websites without error.


Fix 2

If you still receive the “No data received” error when attempting to access websites in Chrome, you may have to uninstall and reinstall Chrome using these steps:

  1. Close Google Chrome.
  2. Right-click the “Start” button, then select “Control Panel“.
  3. Select “Programs and Features” or “Programs” > “Programs and Features“.
  4. Find “Google Chrome” in the list, then select it.
  5. Select the “Uninstall” option.
  6. Download and install a new copy of Google Chrome.
