    I have had this windows 7 laptop a good while and was wondering if there is a free upgrade to windows 10 and should I try it if so.
    Maybe I should download a free Google Chrome Browser. But WHICH ONE?

    There is not an upgrade path for your Windows 7 computer, Bill.

    I really need a way to replace my Gmail that will for some reason not work anymore. I use it because I am using the chrome Browser. I cannot seem to know how to fix the problem. Whenever I click to open it the screen directing me to the Help Center comes up. Then I do not know what to do. Maybe I should uninstall Google and start over again. Must be where I got G-mail to start with?

    Is there a link I can click to install a new Google and/or G-mail? I find this confusing.
    I cannot seem to find and download it. All I see is for Windows 11/10 64bit. I have windows 7 64bit.
    Getting NOWHERE. I do not seem to get anything to work. I want to replace the gmail on my Windows 7 laptop. So I can get into may gmail. And USE IT.

    Forget this train of thought. Gmail and google are NOT installed programs on Windows 7. They are websites you visit with a browser so there is no program to download and install.

    So if each time I click it, it just comes up with visit the Gmail Help Center ad page, what can I do to get another email program I can use?
    All the recovery methods I see want to send me a text message. I have no way to answer or respond to this so I just click CANCEL.
