Chrome Automation Extension has crashed when trying to run protractor test

I am gaining experience with Protractor and am using the example test to see how it works. The test is located in xampp/htdocs/my-dev/test-automation-playground/poc-basic-integration-flow/node_modules/protractor/

In there we have a conf.js and an example_spec.js. To run the test, we enter the protractor folder using git bash, and type protractor conf.js.

When I try to run the example test provided by Protractor, my browser opens and I get the following error: Chrome Automation Extension has crashed.... See below:

enter image description here

And this is what it looks like in the browser:

I've looking into Chrome extensions and there is no such extension there. What could be causing this issue?

I simply start Git Bash without admin rights and I am not getting this error anymore. Also changing browser to Firefox in config resolves this issue most of the time.
