Installing Google Chrome.


Hello.
Due to a HDD failure, I installed Ubuntu 18.04 on a new disk. I want to install the Google Chrome web browser ele cannot be installed on my computer. I used the commands below to no avail:
sudo apt install google-chrome-stable
and
wget -q -O - https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
Maybe someone has a different idea for browser installations.

Greetings.

Thanks, I made it. Now how to uninstall Chromium Web Browser. That's the bigger problem.

Synaptic or sudo apt remove chromium in the terminal.
You are from Poland so you ARE using Sparky, correct ?
