Next year, Google Chrome 110browser will stop supporting Win7/8.1, and users will need to upgrade Microsoft Win11/10

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen kkkkkkkkkayd for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, Oct. 25, since Microsoft ended mainstream support in 2020, many people have been wondering when Google's Chrome browser will give up support for Windows 7. Now, according to Google, the Chrome 110released next year will no longer support Windows 7, and users will need to use newer systems such as Windows 11 and Windows 10.

Google said its Chrome browser would no longer support Chrome 7 and Windows 8.1 after the release of Windows 110, which is currently scheduled to reach a stable version on February 7, 2023. This is consistent with Microsoft's practice of ending extension support for Windows 7 ESU and Windows 8.1 on January 10, 2023. From then on, users need to run at least Windows 10 to maintain access to the new version of Chrome.

CTOnews.com has learned that users of older platforms will be able to continue to install and run earlier versions of Chrome browsers, but they will not be able to install the latest Chrome browsers and will miss out on the latest key security and availability enhancements.
