No more support for Chrome on Windows 8/8.1


Recommended Posts

Chrome users will have to use Windows 10 or newer to get updates to the Chrome or Brave browsers. There will no longer be updates issued for Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 platforms.

They are trying to force us into the snooping versions of Windows. Guess it's time to look for a supported browser, because as long as my 7 and 8.1 machines still work, I'm going to keep them. Some dinosaurs refuse to die!

The browsers will still function in their current capacity on the O/S it's just the updates will no longer be provided for that product. 

Those older O/S's are certainly better than the current day ones they have now.  All Windows 10 & Windows 11 have become is a snooping factory.  They figure since they give the O/S's to the user for free they'll have to take whatever thrown at them regardless of whether they like it or not. At least in Windows 7,8 & 8.1 those functions could be disabled to prevent all the snooping.
