So presumably you had some apps moved off of primary storage (internal
memory) to the secondary storage (SD card).  However, Chrome cannot be
moved from primary storage.  The option to move it to the SD card is
disabled (well, it is in my Android 4.4.4 Kitkat).  I can move Firefox
to the SD card but not Google Chrome.

What does Windows have to do with your Android smartphone?
