New issue 10656 by jacopo.corbetta: Chrome inaccessible by non-admin user  
after 2.0.172.6 update
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10656

Chrome Version       : 2.0.172.6

I am on Vista SP1 with UAC.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Chrome as usual
2. Switch to the beta channel, install 2.0.169.1. Everything worked.
3. Today it was auto-update (by Google Update service?) to 2.0.172.6

What is the expected result?
Able to run chrome as usual (non-admin).

What happens instead?
If I run chrome.exe as non-admin nothing happens. If I run it as
administrator, Chrome opens as usual.

In C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application I see two directories.
2.0.169.1 has read permissions for everyone. 2.0.172.6 has permission only
for admin (see screenshots).

If I add "Read and execute" permission for my non-admin user (from the
"Properties" window of the 2.0.172.6 directory), I am able to run chrome as
usual.
