Launcher uses outdated Chrome version for sign-in

The bug

When the mini-browser is used to sign in, an old version of Chrome is used (v61). This was released in 2017 and likely does not contain the latest security patches. I'm assuming something like sign-in shouldn't be left this vulnerable.

Steps to reproduce

  • Go to Settings > Accounts > Add Microsoft account

  • Navigate to a website such as https://amiunique.org to verify the browser version

This is by design, for compatibility purposes with macOS 10.9. We are currently looking into updating this dependency. Thanks for taking the time to report!

Can confirm in 2.2.1166 and 2.2.910, on macOS 🙂

Chromium updated. With this update Minecraft Launcher also bids farewell to supporting macOS 10.9, as they have dropped support for it.
