You need to download a new file each time you want to upgrade Docker Engine.\n\nSelect your Debian version in the list.\n\nGo to pool/stable/ and select the applicable architecture (amd64, armhf, arm64, or s390x).\n\nDownload the following deb files for the Docker Engine, CLI, containerd, and Docker Compose packages\n\ncontainerd.io.deb docker-ce.deb docker-ce-cli.deb docker-buildx-plugin.deb docker-compose-plugin.deb\n\nInstall the .deb packages. Update the paths in the following example to where you downloaded the Docker packages.\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n   $ sudo dpkg -i ./containerd.io_<version>_<arch>.deb \\\n     ./docker-ce_<version>_<arch>.deb \\\n     ./docker-ce-cli_<version>_<arch>.deb \\\n     ./docker-buildx-plugin_<version>_<arch>.deb \\\n     ./docker-compose-plugin_<version>_<arch>.deb\n```\n\nVerify that the installation is successful by running the hello-world image\n\nBounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically):\n```console\n   $ sudo docker run hello-world\n```\n\nThis command downloads a test image and runs it in a container. When the container runs, it prints a confirmation message and exits.\n\nYou have now successfully installed and started Docker Engine.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
