This has been going for some time in both Windows 7 and Windows 10. The ONLY time I get the Chrome warning is when launching from TBird. No, I'm not in Chrome compatibility mode. If Chrome is already running I don't get the message. No problem when I make Thunderbird the default browser, but I'd much rather use Chrome. Image of the warning is attached.

What version of Tbird are you using ? Also, have you consulted Tbirds Crash /Troubleshooting logs or your Windows Event Message Center for meaningful logs / error messages or other clues to the cause of why Tbird seems to think that you are using WinNT ? Also in chrome have you checked any logs / crash reports for extension or rpcs (remote procedure calls) from tbird for clues?

The NT 6.0 in your Chrome useragent refers to Windows Vista. You would get NT 6.1 and NT 10 for Windows 7 and 10.
