# Updates and moving from the previous version

Connect installs updates at night, when nothing is being sent. The previous version stays until the new version has written its first entry into the PVS.

## Updates

1. When an update is available, Connect shows **Update … is ready**. Connect installs it at night, when nothing is being sent.

   ![Small Connect window: Connected to DURIA, Everything works. Below, the update message: Connect installs it tonight, when nothing is being sent.](https://help.medisynchealth.ai/media/public/connect/tray-update.en.webp)
   _Updates install at night, when nothing is being sent. This is the DURIA example._
2. The practice admin chooses when Connect installs updates. In Connect, open **Settings › Install updates** and choose **At night**, **At once** or **Only by hand**.

   ![Connect settings, For the practice: Run without Windows sign-in, Install updates set to At night, Channel Stable, Send error reports to MediSync, Keep the log 90 days.](https://help.medisynchealth.ai/media/public/connect/updates-setting.en.webp)
   _The practice admin chooses when updates install._
3. If Windows asks whether MediSync Connect may make changes to your device, check that the publisher is MediSync GmbH. Then click **Yes** (**Ja** on German Windows).

   ![Windows User Account Control in German: Möchten Sie zulassen, dass durch diese App Änderungen an Ihrem Gerät vorgenommen werden? MediSync Connect, Verifizierter Herausgeber: MediSync GmbH. Buttons Ja and Nein.](https://help.medisynchealth.ai/media/public/connect/update-uac.webp)
   _The publisher must be MediSync GmbH. Then click Yes._

## Move from the previous version

1. If the previous version 0.7 is still installed, Connect shows the card **Previous MediSync Connect version** under **Systems**. The previous version keeps your PVS connected until the new version has written its first entry. If you use T2med, test the new version first. See [T2med: Move from the previous version](https://help.medisynchealth.ai/en/connect/t2med#move-from-the-previous-version).

   ![Card Previous MediSync Connect version: The previous version 0.7.8 is still installed for your Windows account and connects Medical Office as before. It stays until this version has written its first entry into Medical Office.](https://help.medisynchealth.ai/media/public/connect/old-version.en.webp)
   _The old version stays until the first entry. This is the Medical Office example._
2. When the new version has written its first entry, click **Remove the old MediSync Connect version**. Your entries in the PVS stay.

   ![Card Previous MediSync Connect version: This version has already written into DURIA. You can remove the previous version 0.7.8 now. Button Remove the old MediSync Connect version.](https://help.medisynchealth.ai/media/public/connect/old-remove.en.webp)
   _Then remove the old version with one click. This is the DURIA example._

If the previous version is installed for all users of the computer, your IT must remove it in Windows under **Settings › Apps**.
