If you installed Google chrome through the .deb file, you can update the browser to the latest version by running the following commands:

  1. sudo apt-get update
  2. sudo apt-get --only-upgrade install google-chrome-stable

  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:

  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:

  1. sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb


This was tested for Ubuntu Linux 22.04.1 LTS.
