Google Chrome Ends Support for Older Mac Computers
1 minutes read
Google Chrome is discontinuing support for Macs running macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) and 10.14 (Mojave) starting with version 123, scheduled for release in April 2024. This means users with these older operating systems will no longer receive updates or security patches for their Chrome browsers.
This change affects Mac users who have not upgraded beyond High Sierra or Mojave, as Chrome will continue to work but become increasingly vulnerable to security risks over time. According to Google, this move allows their engineering team to focus on newer, more secure technologies and provide a better browsing experience.
If your Mac is affected, you can continue using Chrome 122, but it’s strongly recommended to upgrade your macOS to a newer version if possible. Staying updated ensures ongoing security and access to new Chrome features.
