# Upgrading Insights

*Applies to: Patch My PC Advanced and Patch Insights*

### Enhanced upgrade

Prior to version 2.5.1, upgrading Advanced Insights was an entirely manual process. But from version 2.5.1, you will be presented with the upgrade to perform on the server where Advanced Insights is installed. For more information on this process, [see here](/patch-my-pc-insights/upgrading-insights/insights-updater.md)

### Manual update

To manually upgrade Advanced Insights, we need to re-run the installer using the latest version downloaded from [here](/patch-my-pc-insights/download-and-install-insights.md). 

{% hint style="info" %}
To upgrade silently please run AdvancedInsights.exe /q /l\*v %temp%\AdvInsights.log
{% endhint %}

When you run the installer, it will prompt for you to accept the license terms.

You will be presented with the upgrade summary page. There is also the option to change the certificate, network port or IIS application pool identity if required.

If upgrading from 1.0.x and 2.0.x versions of Advanced Insights, the upgrade summary page will also include summary information about the Advanced Insights SQL DB migration to SQLite.

See section: [Upgrading to Advanced Insights 2.1 and later from 1.0.x and 2.0.x versions](/patch-my-pc-insights/upgrading-insights/upgrading-to-advanced-insights-2.1-and-later-from-1.0.x-and-2.0.x-versions.md)

If you wish to do so, click the **'View / Change Cert'** button will show additional information about any warnings being flagged.
