Updates

There are several methods.

If you run HFS with npx hfs@latest, just relaunch it.

If you run HFS with npx hfs, just launch it as npx hfs@latest.

If you run HFS as a service

• if your service is using npx hfs@latest, just restart the service

• if your service is using the executable file, first stop the service, unzip the update (replacing existing files), then start the service again

If you run HFS by its executable file (not as a service, and not with node/npx), choose one the following alternatives:

• Method A: on Admin-panel/Home, click "check for updates", and if a newer version is available, then you can just click "install"

• Method B: on Admin-panel/Home, right-click "check for updates", and then you can provide a URL to the update (an http link to a zip file)

• Method C: get the update as a zip file, then quit HFS, then unzip it replacing existing files

• Method D: from the HFS console (not from the browser) enter command update

• Method E: put the update zip file as hfs-update.zip in the HFS working directory, then you can use method A or C. This method is particularly useful if your HFS has no access to internet.

• Method F: plugin "updater". This plugin is designed to automatically install a zip when it is found in the HFS folder. I'm not sure this is still working.
