If you continue to use an outdated version of the software, you may be vulnerable to serious security flaws that compromise your privacy and anonymity. </p> <p> Tor Browser will prompt you to update the software once a new version has been released: the Torbutton icon will display a yellow triangle, and you may see a written update indicator when Tor Browser opens. You can update either automatically or manually. </p> <!-- XXX: Screenshot of update warning, plus screenshots for all the steps below --> <section id="automatic"> <title>Updating Tor Browser automatically</title> <steps> <item> <p> When you are prompted to update Tor Browser, click on the Torbutton icon, then select “Check for Tor Browser Update”. </p> </item> <item> <p> When Tor Browser has finished checking for updates, click on the “Update” button and wait for the update to download and install. </p> </item> <item> <p> Restart Tor Browser. You will now be running the latest version. </p> </item> </steps> </section> <section id="manual"> <title>Updating Tor Browser manually</title> <steps> <item> <p> When you are prompted to update Tor Browser, finish the browsing session and close the program. </p> </item> <item> <p> Remove Tor Browser from your system by deleting the folder that contains it (see the <link xref='uninstalling'>Uninstalling</link> section for more information). </p> </item> <item> <p> Visit https://www.torproject.org and download a copy of the latest Tor Browser release, then install it as before. </p> </item> </steps> </section> </page>
