I am trying to install Google Chrome,for that I downloaded a google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb file.

When I try to install using install in terminal

sudo install google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb

It gives following error.

install: missing destination file operand after ‘google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb’ Try 'install --help' for more information.

Either you can install using terminal as previous answers say,

sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb

Or else, You can double click the downloaded .deb file and it will be opened in Ubuntu Software Center(If you are using ubuntu). Then you can install it clicking on install button.
