We've detected you're using an older version of Chrome. On Steam Overlay

[RTX 5080 FE(Mr Happy)]

I checked the search bar, people dont seem to know how to answer it. Telling us to go to chrome.google.com doesnt fix a damn thing.

The Steam version of Chrome is outdated And you cant seem to download the new chrome through steam,

My current chrome is updated, how do I fix this? Thx

Steam uses a bespoke version of CEF, it's not Chrome and it's not outdated.

The overlay is NOT using Chrome, it is using a custom version of the Chromium Embedded Framework engine (CEF), which Chrome also uses.

So I should just ignore the message saying its outdated?

[Snapjak]

Yes. It's not going to be the same version pretty much ever.

It's doesn't say it's outdated, it says it's an older version, which is true, Steam is using Chromium 68 and I think the current latest build is 75.

Thanks. Chrome in steam is using Your Chrome version is 68.0.3440.106
Chrome outside of steam is using Your Chrome version is 73.0.3683.103

Just not gonna sign into any sites from steam chrome until they update it

If you want to use the 72.0.3626.121 version, opt in for Steam beta.
To opt in, Steam > Settings > Account > Click the button to change, and select the Beta, and click yes to restart client, and that's about it.

Also I don't think signing into anything will be problem, the issue is when trying to visit sketchy/phishing sites, as those you need to look out for, and avoid those.
