Learn how to install Google Chrome on Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and other Linux distros in this easy-to-follow guide.
You may have tried to install Google Chrome by searching for it in the Ubuntu Software store only to find, alas, the world famous web browser isn't available.
But don't panic!
Although the Chrome browser is not available in the Ubuntu archives you can download Google Chrome manually and install it on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, or above. All you need is a working internet connection and a spare few minutes.
You can install Chrome on Linux Mint, elementary OS, Zorin OS, and other Ubuntu-based Linux distros by following the same steps below, though some of the screenshots will differ.
Installing Chrome in Ubuntu
To install Chrome in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and above (or Linux Mint, etc) you first need to download the installer package. Open Mozilla Firefox (or another web browser) and go to the official Google Chrome download page:
Before you can download the Chrome installer you need to 'accept' the Google Chrome Terms of Service. Assuming you're happy to do so (give this a read over first) click the the 'Accept & Install' button. The Chrome installer will begin to download:
If the page above does not work you can download Google Chrome for Ubuntu using this link: 7z install mac.
If you see a pop-up dialog asking 'What should Firefox do with this file?' you need to check the 'Save File' option followed by 'OK'.
The Google Chrome download will start. The full installer is saved to your computer's 'Downloads' folder by default:
When the download is complete open the ~/Downloads folder (unless you chose a different location in the previous step) in the file manager.
You're now ready to install Chrome in Ubuntu using the Software app.
Double-click on the .deb installer package icon in the file manager (as shown below):
The Software app will open.
Click the ‘install' button:
Enter your password when/if prompted:
The progress bar will shuffle along for a few seconds as the browser is installed.
Once done, you're ready to start using it. Search for ‘Chrome' in the applications grid (or using your preferred Linux app launcher) to start browsing!
