What is Supermium?
Supermium is a web browser replacement for Google Chrome, with improvements in privacy and usability, optimized for both old and new Windows systems. Its main goal is to keep traditional Chrome features while being compatible with Windows XP, 2003, Vista, 7, 8.x, and newer.
Supermium's features include Aero Glass-style titlebars, faster vulnerability patching, a functional security sandbox, and customizable tab options. It incorporates flags from ungoogled-chromium, Google Sync, and supports Widevine CDM for DRM content from Windows 7 onwards. It uses GDI font rendering, activated by using #force-gdi in chrome://flags, and offers a persistent dark mode, activated by using #force-dark-mode in chrome://flags. The browser also supports SSE2-only processors in the 32 bit build.
Unlike Google Chrome, Supermium supports Manifest V2, ensuring compatibility with popular Chrome extensions like uBlock Origin. It aims to offer an enhanced browsing experience for all Windows users.

It is the way to go to keep a chrome browser running updated in a win7 32/64 bits edition and it is updated frequently
While this project is amazing by its own for what it tries to achieve, no one ought to be connected to the network through an unsupported OS due to cybersecurity reasons.
You better upgrade your OS to at least Windows 10 if you main Windows, but if you're stuck on an older Windows OS due to performance limitations, you better install Linux Mint or any other GNU/Linux Distro.
