Update Plauti Desktop on Windows

Major new versions of Plauti Desktop need to be installed manually; minor new versions or patches are installed automatically. In the case of the latter, the changes take effect the next time you close and then start the app again.

Checking the current version

1. Open Plauti Desktop.

2. At the Dashboard page, scroll down to “Plauti B.V. User Information”

3. Click User Information.

4. The User Information pop-up opens. The current version is listed under Version.

If the listed version is lower than you'd expect, close Plauti Desktop and open it again. Automatic updates are done in two steps: the first time Plauti Desktop is opened a new version is downloaded; upon closing and opening the app again, the downloaded version is installed.
