Google Chrome and Chromium store some data in JSON format which BleachBit cleaners. It seems one of these files is corrupt or empty.
The JSON files for Google Chrome are
$localappdata\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Preferences
$localappdata\Google\Chrome\User Data\Local State
If the file is empty, let me know. If not, please email me a copy. My email address is on the bottom of every page of this web site as a white link with my name. Also let me know your version of Google Chrome or Chromium.

Dear Andrew,
Thank you for your reply.
>The JSON files for Google Chrome are

I have never used Google Chrome nor Chromium so that I don't have ...\Google\Chrome\... directories.
>If the file is empty, let me know.
Yes, it is emply and there is no such directories.
To avoid the error messages, shouldn't I check "Google Chrome" for clean up files?
Thank you!

If the Google Chrome and Chromium configuration files don't exist, then this doesn't explain what causes the error. Checking "Google Chrome" won't help because the files don't exist, and the cleaner I was thinking of doesn't delete this file.
Would you please try to narrow it down to a checkbox or a file? One way is to uncheck all the options and try them one at a time. Another way is to right click on each checkbox and choose clean. A third way may be to view the files in the log surrounding the error message.

error from Google Chrome
Thank you for your comments.
Yes, I unchecked "Google Chrome > Form history" and "Google Chrome > Search engines", then there was not any error message.
I checked all Chromium, but I did not see any error message so that "Chromium" is fine.
But, I see different error messages this time,
when I checked "Google Chrome > Form history"
no such table: autofill: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Web Data
(in red)
when I checked "Google Chrome > Search engines"
no such table: meta
(in red)
I don't see the error message "No JSON object could be decoded: line 1 column 0 (char 0)".
I don't know why.
Anyway, thank you so much!
