Updating an existing installation
We strongly recommend enabling automatic update checks to keep your installation conveniently up to date at all times.
To manually update a stand-alone installation to a newer minor version:
- Exit PhraseExpress.
- Download the latest PhraseExpress version.
- Install the new version over the current installation.
If you have purchased a maintenance renewal, you need to replace the expired license key with the new license key.
