[Discuss] Ubuntu: "This version of Chrome is no longer supported. Please upgrade to a supported browser."

[pw]

Hello Murray,

I am running chrome and I get no such message.
Perhaps try 'purging' chrome and reinstalling.
There may be some permissions problem with one of the installed files.

sudo apt-get purge chromium-*
reboot
sudo apt-get install chromium-*

It could also be a phishing thing messing with your system.
