When shutting down Windows 8.1, Google Chrome produces the error message "Google Chrome did not shutdown properly". How can I get Chrome to shut down without giving me that error message?

I don't have to be logged in as a Google user.

There is another alternative, you just need to go to:

Settings
  Advanced Settings
    System

And uncheck the Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is closed option.

For now that is the best solution I have found that does not require you to delete your profile.
