GoogleCrashHandler is a software which restores your opened tabs and submits a crash report to Google whenever Google Chrome crashes. It is a part of Google Update software, so if you have Google Update software installed on your system, GoogleCrashHandler is supposed to run continuously as a background process. It is not recommended to uninstall or remove GoogleCrashHandler until it is using too much CPU power or memory.

It is recommended to use "End Process" option in Task Manager than to remove GoogleCrashHandler permanently. If you still want to remove GoogleCrashHandler then go to the following path and find GoogleCrashHandler.exe

C:\Documents and Settings\[Your Username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Update\1.2.xxx.x

Where x depends upon the version of Google Updater you have installed. Please note that before deleting GoogleCrashHandler.exe you must "End Task" it from Task Manager. Simple press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and right click on GoogleCrashHandler.exe and choose "End Task".

I removed GoogleCrashHandler because i was facing problem in playing YouTube videos in Google Chrome, so after removing GoogleCrashHandler there were no further problems.
