How to Update Virtualbox?

I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and I'm trying to update virtualbox. The system is updated. The site of virtualbox says just to download the latest version and just run it normally, but when I do that, it only opens the ubuntu software and nothing more. So, how do I update virtualbox?
