### I want to update Nextcloud to the latest version, but I’m running NextcloudPi. NextcloudPi admin panel defaults to **0** - The default is always a tested Stable release, specifically chosen to avoid bugs and incompatibilities. - There is almost no community support available for this manual process, so by doing this you’ve effectively volunteered to become a serious bug tester. - Incompatibilities and bugs are guaranteed. ### How do I up date to latest XX.X.X release? Simply write in what you want to update to: **20.0.1** from the admin panel. Or, use Nextcloud Admin Settings to Update (sometimes flaky) Highly suggested to backup and update through `ncp-config` interface in case of any problems. ### Can I backtrack after updating? No, you’ll have to restore a backup you’ve made. ### Can I switch back to the tested 0 release cycle? Yes, just change to **0** and then you’ll have to wait until the conservative tested branch catches up to you. ### What if I want to install a beta or RC (Release Candidate)? Write in values are typically as follows: 20.0.0`beta`1 20.0.0`RC`1 If you do this: assume you will completely destroy your NextcloudPi setup. Never proceed on a system you care about. Other than potentially losing everything, please do help us with improving documentation and [bug reports](https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi). 😉 ---
