Greetings

I am second owner of macbook pro running 10.6.8. I deleted previous owner account by creating new admin account and using it to delete previous owner account. I remaned home directrory to my name as well. When I look at Chrome history page it has Previous-Owner-MacBook-Pro. I deleted Chrome and reinstalled but it still Previous-Owner-MacBook-Pro. Any advice on how to remove Previous-Owner would be appreciated. Thanks

When you uninstall Chrome, there may be leftover files that it doesn't delete when dragging the application icon to the trash.

Try deleting:
~Library/Application Support/Google
and
~Library/Caches/Google/Chrome

Before you reinstall Chrome.
