How to update Chrome
If you don’t want to wait for the rollout to reach you, manually updating is easy.
The easiest option is to allow Chrome to update automatically. But you can end up lagging behind on updates if you never close your browser or if something goes wrong, such as an extension preventing the update.
To update manually, click the More menu (three dots), then go to Settings About Chrome . If an update is available, Chrome will start downloading it automatically. Restart Chrome to complete the update, and you’ll be protected against these vulnerabilities.
