In a new blog post, Google confirmed, “We're ending support for Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1. Chrome 110 (tentatively scheduled for release on February 7th, 2023) is the last version of Chrome that will work on these versions of Windows. You’ll need to ensure your device is running Windows 10 or later to continue receiving future Chrome releases.”
Google is making this change because it aligns with Microsoft’s decision to end support for Windows 7 extended security updates and extended support for Windows 8.1 updates on January 10, 2023. In many ways, this makes sense. Microsoft is backing away from these platforms, and they will become considerably less stable as a result.
Chrome support is ending for millions of Windows users, and sooner than you might think...
