Google Chrome (1 Viewer)

This computer will soon stop receiving Google Chrome updates because Windows XP and Windows Vista will no longer be supported.

Is this something I need to be concerned about? Is it a case of switching to a different browser, or can I still use Chrome, but will have to make the updates myself?

You'll be stuck on whatever version you have and if there are any security problems found you're out of luck. They won't be patching them.

You're not still using XP are you?

Vista

Thinking of getting a new laptop anyway. Using an external keyboard on this one!

probably a good move. although installing windows 10 might be a good move first.

I think you have to pay for Windows 10 if you're on Vista.
