Title: How to update Skype
Post by: jeeaik on July 19, 2021, 11:40:22 PM

To whom it may concern,

I am new to Linux Lite, migrating from Windows. My Skype says I have to update it through my package manager. How do I got about it?

Easiest way is to open up a terminal and type this in.

sudo apt install skypeforlinux

If you need installed, you can find Skype in Lite Software.. Then I believe during typical LL updates (Lite Update) if there is an update you will receive it then.
If you installed by another means.. could be different... BUT for the most part using Lite Update should else via the CLI

Code: [Select]

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
