Probably you're not closing it right. Or it happens after syncing extensions, etc.
I'd go step by step.

But it only works 1 launch after the remove of the directory: if I close Chrome and relaunch again, it fails.
"rm -rf ~/.config/google-chrome ; rm -rf ~/.cache/google-chrome" made it works for me...
What else is there besides the sums?
Please retire md5 and switch to sha256 at least for checksums :)
@belochub: for the differences between those, see: https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1086915?hl=en
The other two are: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/google-chrome-beta/, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/google-chrome-dev/
@clepi: from my experience, it's Chrome populating its History information or something. You can see it read a lot of things from disk and load it in memory. Can be databases generated by some extensions too, mostly related to history and cache usually.
I have cleared ~/.config/google-chrome & ~/.cache/google-chrome but it still won't work.
Went through the normal troubleshooting of renaming ~/.config/xxx/ & ~/.cache/xxx/, and looking at the terminal output?
When I open chrome (or even chromium) I cannot use it - it's not responsive (can't even type anything in search bar). It've been installed without errors. Does anyone have the same issue? Moreover it works perfectly fine on my laptop, but it won't on pc.

When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop. You can have a look at the "Stable updates" tag in Release blog for this.
You can also run this command to obtain the version string for the latest chrome version:
Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.
