Install/Remove Google Chrome in Linux/Ubuntu

At first let's see how to install Google Chrome web browser in linux/ubuntu.

Go to https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/ to download Google Chrome linux version.

When the download has finished, open Terminal by pressing Alt+Ctrl+T.
Enter into the directory where you've put the download file and type the following command to install it.

sudo dpkg -i <the downloaded file name>

Thats all for installation part.


Now let's see how to remove this installed Google Chrome. From my personal Opinion, Google says this Google Chrome version is stable but its not. Cause It crashed easily. My personal suggestion is to use Chromium in all linux platform. Its quite better.

Open Terminal and type below command to remove installed Google Chrome.

sudo dpkg -r <the downloaded file name>


OR type the following command in Terminal to remove installed Google Chrome.

sudo apt-get remove google-chrome-stable



Enjoy! :-)
