This reminds me of years ago when I was trying to get my grandma off of Internet Explorer.

The only thing that worked in the end was adding a shortcut to the desktop and changing its icon to IE's. For a lot of younger people, or older folk who resisted computers until the 2010s, Chrome is the internet, the same way my grandma thought IE was the internet.
