Updating FlowShare ensures you have the latest features, bug fixes, and performance improvements. There are multiple ways to update FlowShare depending on your preferences:
Automatic Update
When a new version of FlowShare is released, you will be notified, if you set it up:
Open FlowShare and navigate to Settings.
Make sure you check the Check for software updates box.
Next time when you run FlowShare, you will receive a notification about the new version, if available.
To update, please follow the prompts to download and install the update.
Manual Update
Some users may prefer to update FlowShare manually.
Go to the FlowShare download page that you can find via the email you received previously or by logging into the FlowShare Portal.
Download the latest version of FlowShare.
Uninstall the previous version before installing the new one.
Run the new installer and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update.
If you prefer, you can always download the latest version from our website in a portable format that does not require installation.
Update via Command Line
If you prefer using the command line, FlowShare provides a utility called wyUpdate.exe
to manage updates.
Standard Update:
Run the following command:
wyUpdate.exe
Silent Update:
Run the following command:
wyUpdate.exe /skipinfo
Use the
/skipinfo
argument to bypass the update information page and proceed directly to downloading and installing the update.
By using one of these methods, you can keep FlowShare up-to-date and functioning optimally.
