Client Upgrade

Upgrading Manually

You can choose to manually upgrade all the client software on each machine, using your own install script or by hand. Note that this will not clear out workspaces, as per the pre-requisites above

Upgrading via the Auto Upgrader

It is possible to fully upgrade all user computers by using the Auto Upgrader, however you must upgrade your administrator first so they can set the auto upgrader. Once they are upgraded, simply open the 12d Synergy Administrator and go to: System Settings->Auto Upgrader Here, you can specify the executables to use for the upgrade.
