How to stop the Windows 7 warning on Chrome?

[sono]

Is there any way to make Chrome stop sending the Windows 7 is not supported warnings on the top of the screen somehow?

I know that this doesn't directly address your question but I would recommend superium. Supermium 121 - Updated Chromium browser for Windows 7 They are back porting updates to older systems. A bonus for me is that it isn't Chrome.

"Disable or Remove Unsupported OS Warning Banner in Google Chrome"

Chrome version 109 was the last to support Windows 7, so beyond the "Unsupported OS" warning generated by the browser itself, you're also likely to get nags from certain websites that don't like you using an old version of the browser. To stop those websites from nagging you, you can install the "User-Agent Switcher and Manager" extension.

Even better, I'll second townsbg's suggestion to switch to Supermium instead, a fork of the Chromium base that continues with updates beyond v.109 and still supports Windows 7. Switching to Supermium will eliminate both of the above problems because it fakes the User-Agent string to pretend you're using Windows 10 and a more recent version of Chrome.

That's fine but browserwise I always fear of using anything else than official versions as during browsing I add lots of sensitive data like credit card numbers and passwords. And who knows who is at the backend of these softwares even on Github.

Sounds like a good reason to be using something more private than Google Chrome.

Browser forks like Supermium, Thorium, Opera, et al, are based on the same open source Chromium base as Google Chrome so they are just as secure, but the privacy conscious developers have left out the Google spyware. Further, more knowledgeable coders can monitor the Github source of open source browsers to make sure there is no nefarious code, which is a lot more than one can say for the Google Chrome source code.

And don't forget that Google stopped supporting Chrome on Win 7, so you're not getting the benefit of any security updates since version 109. The forks are basing their versions on more recent versions of the Chromium base, so are arguably more secure than the Google Chrome you're using.
