Upgrade to Latest Version

Important! You must create a new Software Install task to push install from ESET Remote Administrator.

 

Previously created Software Install tasks will fail because they refer to the previous version of the ESET Endpoint product.

To upgrade clients to the latest version, you must use the package Install by direct package URL installation option, as installing from the existing repository will not work at this time.

1. Create a new Software Install task (for 32-bit and 64-bit). See How do I push install to client workstations using ESET Remote Administrator? (6.x).
    
2. Select the Install by direct package URL option (see step 8b in the previous Knowledgebase article).
    
3. Add the correct URL from the ESET Download page for the product you want to install, copy/paste the URL into the field and then execute the task on all clients.
