The TradeStation Update Manager window allows you to install new release versions and apply/roll-back TradeStation updates. Color-coded visual cues are used to indicate the status of the release version or patch update displayed. By default, TradeStation automatically downloads patch updates to your computer once the platform is launched. For more information on how to set the download preferences, see Desktop Preferences - Updates.

Update Manager is displayed.
The detail view includes the most recent updates and versions displayed on the main window as well as any preceding upgrades that may have been available. Keep in mind installing the most recent update includes all previous builds. The TradeStation Update Manager detail view allows you to:
Your current base build will be indicated with Current Update in the Action column. From there, you have the option to Apply a more recent (9.1 Update 1), or the most recent update (9.1 Update 2) to the current release version installed on your computer. When an update's status is Critical, it is highly recommended that you apply the update.
Click
Apply on the desired patch update.
The Downloading
TradeStation update... message may automatically appear once you display
the TradeStation Update Manager window. This would only occur if the window
opens during the time TradeStation is downloading an update.
Once an update has been applied to your computer, it can be removed. If the patch update does not fit your needs, you can roll-back to the previously installed update if necessary.
Click
Roll-back on the desired patch
update you want to roll back from.
A popup window is displayed confirming that you want to roll-back to the previous update. Click Continue to roll-back. Roll-back only applies to patch updates; not release versions.
The TradeStation Test Program allows you to participate in evaluating alpha and beta test versions or updates. Test builds are pre-release candidates that are subject to change based on user's feedback.

When you apply an update or install a release version, the platform, Ticker, and TradeStation Development Environment will automatically shut down. Essential TradeStation environment files are backed up and you will be notified by the Update Manager Popup Notification. Once the patch update has been applied or the release version has been installed, check the "Launch TradeStation when finished" setting to launch the TradeStation platform. If you bypass the notification window, you are postponing the update to be applied to your computer and will be reminded of the pending update when you close the platform.
