<title>Updating</title>

Tor Browser must be kept updated at all times. 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outdated version of the software, you may be vulnerable to serious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.

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.
