Signs that Google Chrome will stop working on Windows 7 computers from next week 😴
As a critical appeal to business owners who are still using older versions of Windows, Google is ready to stop supporting Chrome for Windows 7. 💯
Accordingly, Google may stop technical and security support for the browser running on Windows 7 next week. 😴
Google originally planned to end support on July 15, 2021, but due to Covid-19, it pushed back the deadline first to January 15, 2022, and then to January 10, 2023. 🥶
Chrome 109, the last version of Chrome that supports Windows 7 and 8/8.1, will end this support, and the new version, Chrome 110 (scheduled for release on February 7, 2023), will be the first version to work on Windows 10 and later. . 🌿
Although Microsoft itself stopped support for Windows 7 in January 2020
It is still used by millions of computers around the world and according to statistics from NetMarketShare.com, 14 percent of global Windows devices were still using Windows 7 as of December 2021. 🌝🌸
Even after the end of Microsoft support, this windows 7 works properly but does not receive new security updates. As such, the risk of exposure to security risks and viruses is very high.
Therefore, the company had mentioned on the website that "upgrade to a modern operating system such as Windows 10 that can provide the latest security updates that help keep you and your data safe." 🍀
This fate will now befall chrome as well and older versions of Chrome will continue to run but updates will no longer be released for users on these operating systems.
It was reported that 21% of organizations are still in the process of migrating to Windows 10 as new priorities emerge for IT teams.
