Public bug reported:

ps shows chromium-browser processes are running, but no windows appear.

I've been able to correlate the message
"[...:ERROR:data_store_impl.cc(131)] Failed to open Data Reduction Proxy
DB: 3" with this failure mode.

Users are frustrated when it happens to them, and advice online is to
delete your profile and reboot, which is suboptimal, because it removes
all bookmarks, history, settings, etc.  I have one user that gets this
error almost daily, even after workstation swap, so I'm guessing there's
a behavioral component as well.

I have confirmed that killing all chromium-browser processes and rolling
back just $HOME/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences to the state it was
before a prior successful start is enough to fix the issue when it
happens to me.
