Google is migrating users with at least 4 GB RAM to the 64-bit version and redesigns the native notifications.

      I agree with the dude below me, I haven't used Chrome in many months and went back to good ol' Firefox. Edge is good too after official extension support and the new tab features (setting tabs aside, tab preview) were added.

        Haven't used Chrome Browser in well over 5 years. Firefox and Edge do a wonderful job

          I say it because I had the stable 64-Bit version for a while.
          Here is the link for the stable 64-Bit version https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html?platform=win64
          Just place ?platform=win64 at the end of the link.

              I'm on:

              Version 58.0.3029.96 (64-bit)

              Google Chrome is up to date.

                Better.

                  The way the article is written, one can understand that a 32 bit device wih PAE will get the 64 bit version.

                                        I've been using beta for years now as well. I was always on 64bit. However, this v59 brought also a redesigned Settings page. I don't like it. I miss normal, smaller Settings pages.
