Can't Update to Latest version of Google Chrome

[Gigahenry007]

Dear Friends,

Hope all is well.

For whatever reasons I cannot update to the latest version of Google Chrome. (Note Attachments)

There is a Red Update in the upper right corner where the 3 dots are found.

Please advise.


Best, Ralph

MX 18 is past end of life, and no longer supported. Your problems will only increase as time goes on.

I would suggest an update to a supported MX release.

Grazia,
the google>windows mafia is at it again...
Change or go extinct in the process and collect all that much more information invading every corner of everyone's life that uses the Internet or anything related to it.

[thinkpadx]

then use another browser.

It's all good...although, this can become a hardship for many people.

you should still be able to download the Google Chrome Deb file
- direct from the Google Web Site

the only issue, will be, if any support files, are also needed.
- which, in this case, there such an file.
:(

Thank You! do you happen to know?
Plan to upgrade to MX21 but I'm not sure exactly when and I am not an astute LINUX user. On the learning curve and usually have to look to you folks or a friend locally that also uses and knows LINUX inside and out. I live in a rural area and getting reliable tech support is challenging.
Cheers, Raphael

Contact your local high school and see if there's a student there that's willing to do it for, say, $50.00, At most, it will take him or her about an hour to upgrade your laptop to MX 21.3.

Thank You! nice suggestion...
I'll post back when I know what's up.
Appreciate all your help on here.
Great People & Great Forum!

If you look back to post#1 you'll see the result of taking the steps you've suggested in the attachment.
