It seems like you updated your system in the past from ??? to Noble. During this process the update manager disables all package sources except the original Ubuntu sources, to prevent potential conflicts while upgrading your Ubuntu to a newer release. After the upgrade process ran successfully, you need to re-enable other sources than the Ubuntu sources manually.

In the given case, open the file named google-chrome.sources as shown by you with an editor with root privileges (e.g. by navigating in the terminal to the folder where the file google-chrome.sources is located, then enter sudo nano google-chrome.sources), go to the line Enabled: no and replace it with Enabled: yes. Save the file and close the editor.

Run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade in the terminal and the latest stable release of Chrome should be installed. Plus you should receive update for Chrome automatically again.

Try this:

wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list'
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Here's where you'll find out more.
