Windows 7 has been end of life for many years at this point, so I doubt that this is something that will be fixed unfortunately. I would recommend you update to a modern and supported operating system that still receives security patches.

bruh then why does it work fine on firefox? this is probably an issue on chrome or there were some server-side changes that lead to this TRUE

Respectfully, I would encourage you to stop saying comments like "the staff are useless". I'm a volunteer here, not cf staff, and this discord in general is supported by the community. As for why it works in Firefox, I don't know. But you're using an end of life operating system. Things will break, you're prone to security issues, and I wouldn't expect anyone to fix their software for an OS that's been EOL for 3+ years.

Chrome actually dropped support for Windows 7, meaning the old version of Chrome is likely the issue. As others have said here, Windows 7 is EOL and I doubt there will be any fixes coming.

ik they quit updating chrome on Win 7 and the chrome installer always install the last updated version of chrome on win 7 the offline installer gives an error for some reason

yea that makes sense then, Turnstile only aims to support the latest version of major browsers

If Firefox works, I would just use it for now. Firefox is nice, and won't restrict adblocking compatability/etc in the near future But I mean at some point you're going to have to, Win 7 is dead and more things will stop supporting it eventually

don't have to stick to Windows, could try pop OS or some Linux Distro, at least they're supported with security updates. Anyway looks like even Firefox only has a year or so left of support on its Extended Support Release edition

It pretty much is. Microsoft stopped supporting it, Google stopped supporting it, etc.

whats pop OS? is it like wimdows or linux? i was just wondering if i could use windows programs on linux? as a .exe ? what file format does linux use anywas? .tgz? .dmg?

Linux uses binaries. No extension, usually. .exe -> no extension .msi (installer) -> a .deb on some Linux distributions, an .rpm on others And you can run emulate some Windows programs on Linux but support varies, and it's better to run native Linux programs on Linux (like Chrome built for Linux)

emulation would be way too slow for my pc its pretty dang old ig i had to stick to windows anyways i still wonder how does .debs works on IOS

Linux can be ok if you just do basic stuff, gaming is getting there, there's office alternatives like libreoffice, but imo you have to be comfortable googling

like iphoneos arm.deb is it like smooth as Ios? tbh i have never used linux before
Chaika

depends on your computer, but Linux distros are pretty light weight. There are a number of things you'd have to switch to, like Gimp instead of Photoshop, Libreoffice instead of MS Office, etc

btw I was going to mention: For my own curiosity I spun up a VM running Win 7 Ultimate SP1 and I was able to use chrome and solve turnstile challenges. It looks like in turnstile channel Benedikt was looking into it anyway, but it looks like it may be more specific then just Win 7 Chrome
