Updating your Software

This page is describes the three methods of updating software. If connected to the internet, the Online version is by far the easiest and the software will check to see if newer versions are available. If not connected to the internet, one of the Offline methods must be used. The "automatic" method uses the Online process to download the UPD files, which are then installed. The "manual" method requires you to download the files via the web browser.

Below is a description of the process. To the right are links to the specific files you'll need.
