At this point you may better off uninstalling and reinstalling...
The following command will search and confirm the chrome package installed..

--- Code: ---apt list --installed |grep chrome
--- End code ---


You should see something similar..


--- Quote ---google-chrome-stable/stable,now 93.0.4577.63-1 amd64 [installed]
--- End quote ---


To REMOVE - if stable else replace as needed

--- Code: ---sudo apt remove google-chrome-stable
--- End code ---


From FIREFOX or another browser - navigate to https://www.google.com/chrome/
Download the .DEB package once downloaded you can double click the file to launch the installer....
It will be GUI based = follow the prompts..

Tnx for update. But nothing shows up in terminal as indicated. Please see attachment. Also, what about readout from terminal on 1st point?

Hmmm ... Launch Linux Lite Terminal and type this
--- Code: ---ls /ect/apt
--- End code ---
and if the file google-chrome.list shows up, then proceed to edit it following the instructions in my previous post
--- Code: ---sudo nano /etc/apt/google-chrome.list
--- End code ---

Moltke:
This file google-chrome.list should be in /etc/apt/sources.list.d, so you could try editing that file, and disable the repo:
1. Launch Linux Lite terminal and type
--- Code: ---sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list
--- End code ---
hit Enter, type in your password when asked, and hit Enter again. You should see something like this

--- Code: ---### THIS FILE IS AUTOMATICALLY CONFIGURED ###
# You may comment out this entry, but any other modifications may be lost.
deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main

--- End code ---
First, check that deb is followed by  [arch=amd64], if it isn't, you might try adding that part, and see if that fixes it, otherwise disable the repo by commenting the line that starts with deb, so it looks like this:

--- Code: ---### THIS FILE IS AUTOMATICALLY CONFIGURED ###
# You may comment out this entry, but any other modifications may be lost.
# deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main

--- End code ---
Once you do that, hit Ctrl + o and Enter to save the changes, and Ctrl + x to close nano.
2. Update repos
--- Code: ---sudo apt update
--- End code ---
3. Download, and update Chrome  https://www.google.com/intl/en_us/chrome/ once you do, the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list will be recreated.
