The need to download a browser arises when a clean operating system is installed. As a rule, some kind of browser is installed by default in any operating system. But if it does not suit you, or the browser installed in the operating system is outdated, then you need to download the browser.
How to download a browser
Note that the operating system can have multiple browsers, but only one can be designated as the default browser. This way you can install multiple browsers without harming the OS.
How to download Mozilla Firefox
If you are a fan of the Mozilla browser, then go to the official website of the browser. At the top of the page you will see the word “Mozilla”. Click on it - a menu will open. Click on the “Firefox” link and then click on “Download a fresh copy”. You will see a list of localized versions of the Mozilla Firefox browser for Windows, MacOS, Linux (32 and 64-bit versions).
Note that Debian's Firefox browser is called Iceweasel. There is a special repository for this Linux that you can add to the system. To do this, add the following line to the /etc/apt/sources.list file: deb https://mozilla.debian.net/ wheezy-backports iceweasel-release
and run:
- apt-get update
- apt-get install iceweasel
How to download Opera
