When I install or reinstall google-chrome I do the following:

  1. Download google-chrome (RPM version)
    Get Chrome for Linux

  2. Delete google’s flag file /etc/default/google-chrome

  3. sudo dnf remove an existing google-chrome installation

  4. sudo dnf install the downloaded .rpm

Google Chrome setting exist in directory ~/.config/google-chrome/ and can be copied from an existing google-chrome installation to another installation
