How do you stop Google Chrome on Windows from asking to login with a Google Account every time the browser is opened. When I use Chrome on Linux and Mac It does not always open a new tab every time over my requested start page asking to set up Chrome.

If I choose for option 1 "open the home page" and for option 2 Home Page set to "Open this page" with value google.com then it opens 2 pages chrome set up and google.com as pictured above.– MrDanielApr 9, 2012 at 16:57

Then you can easily choose under
On startup
option the second one. and personally I'm using these settings and haven't any problem.....:)– avirkApr 9, 2012 at 17:03 -
Reopening previouse tabs while it is a good option it is not what I want. I just want google.com to open as the default page, sans the sign in request for chrome opening in another tab in front of the google.com tab.– MrDanielApr 9, 2012 at 17:11
Google Support has instructions that may assist you in changing what happens when you open chrome.
Try to set the homepage to Open the following pages and set http://www.google.com as the page to open, on start up.
You can do this with the following registry policy:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome]
"SyncDisabled"=dword:00000001
ON that annoyingly persistent login page click the small link near the bottom that says SKIP FOR NOW. It does MORE than 'for now'. It frees up settings.
THEN click the CUSTOMIZE (control panel) button to the right of the address bar, select SETTINGS from the drop-down menu, and then go to the STARTUP options and set your home page (if you had tried to do this previously, you will notice your choice now appears). Click OK.
Close Chrome. Reopen. Voila!
For 64-bit Windows, the registry key is: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Policies\Google\Chrome] "SyncDisabled"=dword:00000001
I confirm that future.child/Sathya answer above does work on 32-bit Windows.

1If you had the reputation, I would say edit or comment the other correct answer to add that detail. But since you can't do that, due to reputation yet, adding it as another answer seems reasonable. Mar 21, 2013 at 4:05
Go into your saved passwords and remove any google, gmail saved passwords you see in there. I had recently changed mine and it was after that I started having the problem. Once I did that and logged in again...... no problems...
