In this tutorial, we will learn how to download and install the Google Chrome browser in Kali Linux.
1. Open terminal by pressing “Ctrl + Alt + t” at the same time on your keyboard.
2. Update your local package repository.
sudo apt update
3. We would require the “wget” tool for downloading files from web servers directly via the command line interface. Install the tool using the following command:
sudo apt install wget -y
4. Use the wget command to download the latest stable version of Google Chrome Debian package from Google’s official repository:
wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
*This command downloads the “google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb” file, which is the Debian package for Google Chrome.
5. Once the download is completed, install Google Chrome using “dpkg“:
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
6. After the installation is completed, you can start Google Chrome by typing “Google Chrome” in the application menu, or you can launch it directly from the terminal with the following command:
google-chrome
That’s it! This is how to Download and Install Google Chrome Browser on Kali Linux.
