Software updates
If a software update is available, KONNEKT informs the user with a toast, if the user has local admin privileges.
You may alternatively observe the context menu of the KONNEKT tray icon (right click), if there is a new version available.
Sometimes we publish KONNEKT Preview Releases. We do this, when we are working on a new version of KONNEKT, to give customers the opportunity to try new features before those are finally released. We are happy, when we get feedback on those versions, to find bugs and improve release quality.
Preview Releases are still in development and therefore bugs may occur.
KONNEKT Preview Releases are not published via the built-in update-checker in KONNEKT. You have to manually download it. If a preview release is available, you can find it in the changelog.
Local admin permissions are required to execute an update of KONNEKT.
Please follow the following steps to update KONNEKT:
- 1.Uninstall the previous version of KONNEKT
- 2.Reboot the machine.
- 3.
Why do I have to reboot the machine?
An important module of KONNEKT is a kernel driver. This kind of drivers must be unloaded before being updated. If you update KONNEKT without unloading the driver (= reboot the system after uninstallation), bluescreens may occur.
Managed FAT clients should be updated by the client management system (e.g. MEM/Intune)
VDI servers should be updated by admins only.
