2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt-get --only-upgrade install firefox

Download Google Chrome DEB installer from the Terminal by using the wget command:

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse]

1. wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

And then use dpkg to install Chrome from the downloaded DEB file:

This was tested for Ubuntu Linux 22.04.1 LTS.
