I had this happen and I fixed the problem by relogging in to Google Sync.
The profile file is stored in:
~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default
Usually an application will install data in /Library/Preferences/
and/or ~/Library/Preferences/
.
Data can also be placed after any of the following patterns:
/Library/Preferences/<application name>/
~/Library/Preferences/<application name>/
/Library/Application Support/<application name>/
~/Library/Application Support/<application name>/

/Library/<application name>/
~/Library/<application name>/
