If you have downloaded a Chrome .deb file, you were close with your first command: try sudo dpkg -i /Path/to/chrome.deb — douggro, Feb 09 '14 at 12:32
don't directly apply the above command where /Path/to/chrome.deb means the system path where chrome.deb file is actually stored.You can also get it by rightclicking on the chrome.deb file and then selecting the properties option. — Avinash Raj, Feb 09 '14 at 12:42
And please confirm your commands before pressing enter. sudo dkg --install /Path/to/chrome.web should be sudo dpkg --install /Path/to/chrome.web, sudo aåt-get install -f should be sudo apt-get install -f. Check this tutorial on how to use the terminal. — Parto, Feb 11 '14 at 13:26

You are messing things very badly.Simply just double click, the file will open in software center and then click install. — Registered User, Feb 14 '14 at 12:25

The correct app is dpkg, not dkg.Also correct extention is .deb and not .web.

So your command must be sudo dpkg --install /Absolute/Path/to/chrome.deb

Absolute path means you start from /home/{user}/ and not from you home directory.

For example, consider you have stored your file in abc/def/chrome.deb.
Then your command will be sudo dpkg --install $HOME/abc/def/chrome.deb or sudo dpkg --install /usr/<whatever your user name may be, mine is aditya, so I'll put aditya here.You put your's>/abc/def/chrome.deb

An easier way,right click the .deb package and select open with Ubuntu software center.Then select install.

An third way, install gdebi by using this command.sudo apt-get install gdebi.Then right click on your file,select open with gdebi and click install.

Just install Ubuntu Tweak and under the apps tab, you will find a link to install Google Chrome directly.

EDIT

Check images below:

enter image description here

Though now in your case, you will have to check the checkbox and then click install.
Hope it works out.
