Thank you again! Since last entry I went into fstab to get my HD to open properly (system is on an SSD). It seems to have resolved many of the permissions issues which changing a few designations in Disks program hadn't resolved.
Whether this made a difference or not to what I tried earlier, I think what I did wrong first time around was to save the file as .txt and then when going into Properties couldn't select the 'make file executable' box.
Just ignorance on my part about saving the file without an extension.
I adjusted the text to just open Chrome (I prefer it because Chromium has difficulties playing certain types of flash content on sites I often visit, otherwise wouldn't bother) and it is great.
Thanks again.
(Now if I try to reinstall fingerprint stuff and have this problem again with Chrome, I should be okay. I don't need the fingerprint thing but since the computer has one I wanted to set it up. Seems better without it. One less thing to complexify/screw up!)
Resolved!
