There is a good amount of functions integrated by default in the current web browsers, which perhaps do not miss until we cannot use them. An example of all this is found in the synchronization tool for applications of this type like Google Chrome.
As surely many of you already know firsthand, this is an integrated tool that allows us to synchronize multiple contents stored in the program between devices. In this way, if we use Chrome in our desktop computer and mobile computer, for example, we will have the possibility of sharing open eyelashes, extensions, stored favorites, and more.
This allows us to access all that information saved over time from different devices, as long as we use the same browser account. In addition, we can continue the sessions from one device to another without any problem. However, it seems that this will disappear in certain circumstances that we will describe below.
We tell you all this because, from now on, the software giant is eliminating the function called Chrome Sync in old versions of its browser. This is something that has recently been released where Google announced the important changes that you will carry out in its project. In fact, many have caught the disappearance of their data synchronization capabilities.
According to the company, at the beginning of this year 2025, Chrome Sync will stop working in old program. What is not clear at the moment is what will be the minimal version of compatible Chrome for its synchronization tool to work. What he says is that Chrome’s versions, more than four years old, can show a warning message in this regard.
How to continue using Google Chrome synchronization
Here, what we must take into consideration and if we are common for this functionality integrated into the program, is that to avoid disappearance, we have a fairly easy way out. In fact, the searches himself makes it clear by showing the message in which Chrome advises us to start synchronization.
This means that if we are working with an old version of the web browser, we should update as soon as possible to a more current one so as not to lose that synchronization functionality. And as they will inform us shortly, soon Chrome Sync, which is used to save data on the Google account, will stop working in Chrome versions that are over four years old.
In parallel, it is worth adding that the change will not affect Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 users who can no longer update Chrome to a more current version. And it is that the latest version available for those who still cling to Windows versions that are no longer compatible, is Chrome 109, which was launched in January 2023. Since it is only two years old, it will continue to synchronize Chrome’s data between devices
