Google Chrome completely disappeared from my machine - Ubuntu 16.04
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am on Ubuntu 16.04 and have had Google Chrome installed for some time now. It's the only browser I use and was in the sidebar on my desktop. Just minutes ago, I temporarily changed my IP using ifconfig to something that broke my internet connection. So I restarted my machine, and come back to an Ubuntu completely devoid of Google Chrome. I can't find a single trace of Chrome on my machine and have no idea what would've happened. Does anyone have a clue as to why this might have occurred? I'm absolutely bewildered.
whereis google-chrome and which google-chrome return no results, it does not appear in searches, nothing related in trash, etc

ifconfig would not delete installed programs. You may have removed it from the sidebar by accident but "whereis" and "which" should still have found it unless your path is messed up.
What does "echo $PATH" show?
