Unhandled exception

Avatar Roy Rainford
When clicking a pop-up in my Chrome browser the correct web page didn't open but this message appeared: "An unhandled exception was thrown by the application." Can anyone enlighten me on this and say how to bypass it?

After closing Chrome and reopening it the required page opened. Problem solved but I would still be interested in what the message meant.

Error handling, aka exception handling, is code which the application author has to write to deal with all the things which shouldn't happen but, in reality, do. I think the message simply means that a situation arose which the author hadn't envisaged, and so there was no code written specifically to handle it.
