ChromeOS 116 has started rolling out and while we’re still looking for any other new stuff to talk about in this latest update, the one thing we’ve been a bit fixated on this week has been the new, decoupled Chrome browser for ChromeOS devices called Lacros.
The main thing you need to understand is this: Lacros separates Chrome (the browser) from ChromeOS (the operating system) so that updates can happen for your browser in step with other desktop Chrome versions in the future.
Here's a quick explanation of why it matters and how you can try it out for yourself!

I bought a Dell Chromebook from eBay for $56.00 and this device is in very good condition, also the last update for this system was ending and I checked out your uploaded video and downloaded Lacros and it's now uploaded to my refurbished Chromebook and added a few more years into this machine! And this was a big help and thank you for the information!
Thanks for covering this GREAT news Robby 👍
My Chromebook just updated as I turned it on while I watched! I did it, I'm on Lacros! Thank you!
This is an exciting development. Thanks for the update, Robby, et al.
Profile switching was the first thing I looked for and couldn't find coming to a Chromebook from a Mac, so this is super helpful. Thanks!
Robby - continuing thoughts on your acknowledgement what a big change happens with 116, I found working across a Lenovo Chromebook, Chromebox, and Dell laptop with Windows has been transformed. This really is a fabulous change. I have to use Windows for a business, but being able to have a seamless use of Chrome across all computer applications and my Pixel 7 Pro makes things very easy.
Thank you for this. I enabled this on a Samsung Chromebook Pro which I love but has reached its AUE. It works fine. Nice to know I can continue to use the chromebook and continue getting updates for the browser.
Excellent information, and many more to come….👏👏👏
Well - that's very interesting. So I followed your advice and updated to 116 and changed to Lacros and what did I discover?
Wow!. Thanks for this update!. Pretty impressive.
Loving this channel. Thanks Robby!
Awesome! Just made the switch on Chrome OS Flex, and it is just flawless.
Ah! I didn't understand what benefit Lacross would bring to ChromeOS until I saw this video, especially how I can now switch between my multiple profiles within the browser instead of having to sign into those on the OS level. This is a great usability improvement for me. Thank you!
I tried it out today and Chrome/Lacros needed to install an update as well. Perfect. Very quick and seamless compared to a Chrome OS update that requires a full reboot. I did notice that the Double Down Casino app no longer works.
thanks so much. I have a lenovo Chromebook flex 5i for 2 years almost 3 and I've wanted to switch to a mac for college. After watching this video made me want to stick to my Chromebook and not switch. So I appreciate your help :)
I just tried this and I cannot believe how painless and seamless it was. There may be some nasty bugs that we haven't found yet but this pretty much feels like it's ready for release.
Great video as always.
Very Good update - Thanks.
That profile switcher is huge!
I have a Samsung Chromebook Plus that had the OS updates end in August 2023. Last update was early August and the Chromebook still ran fine. Near the end of August two more security updates loaded and the Chromebook became useless. Web pages would take 20 seconds or more to load and the screen would go black for a few seconds before the page loaded. I had heard about Lacros but did not know how to load it until watching this video. After loading the 2 flags noted for Lacros the Chromebook is running perfectly again. No more delay for web pages and no more black screens. Extremely disappointed that security updates could cripple my Chromebook and being at end of support there was no way to fix the problem other than getting lucky with the Lacros flags. This Chromebook was within weeks of being in the recycle bin and would have been my last Chromebook.
