Merits and Demerits of using Online and Offline Installers for Google Chrome

For the computers with a slow or unstable internet connection, Google allows users to download an Offline Standalone installer for Google Chrome. Both the online and offline (standalone) installers have their own merits and demerits. Talking about the online installer, the main merit of using it is that whenever you run that online installer file, it always downloads the latest version of Google Chrome while on the other side, the offline installer comes offline along with a particular release of Chrome. So, you need to keep the offline installer file updated in order to get the latest version of the browser. Another workaround to this issue is that you really head out to update Google Chrome as soon as it gets installed. A demerit about the online installer is that when the setup file is used to install the browser on multiple computers, all of them would need a stable, working Internet connection. To fix this, you will definitely need the standalone (offline) installer. So, now let us just check out how to download the offline installer for Google Chrome.
