Checking for updates to features

This topic describes how to find available updates for an installed feature.

A user who has installed one of your features might want to know when a new version of the feature is available.

To check the available update sites for a newer version, the user can click Help > Check for updates. If an update exists for any of the user's installed features, the Available Updates wizard opens, and the user can work through the pages of the wizard to install the updated version.

To be automatically notified when an update is available, the user can set an option in the Preferences window. To set this option:
  1. Click Window > Preferences.
  2. In the left pane click Install/Update > Automatic Updates.
  3. In the right pane, select Automatically find new updates and notify me.
