As you know, next Tuesday, January 14, Microsoft the latest set of security updates for Windows 7. After this, support for the 2009 OS will officially end. Unofficially, craftsmen will certainly be able to use updates provided as part of paid support, but this is not the topic now.
Many users probably thought that with the end of OS support and the imminent arrival of a new version of Microsoft Edge based on Chromium, they might be left without their usual tools. This is not true: Google Chrome browser the “Seven” has another 18 months, until July 15, 2021.
As stated by Max Christoff, Chrome development director, this is done for those users and companies who have not yet begun the transition to Windows 10 or have just started the process. He clarified that Chrome for Windows 7 will receive all the same security updates and functionality as the version for Windows XNUMX.
Kristoff noted that the unification of the interface and the general principles of the browser's layout are the same on all platforms, so the transition should be easy. It is also expected that Firefox, Opera and Vivaldi browsers will receive updates at least in the next year and a half.
