From what I know, autoupdate is possible only on Ubuntu. But FreeCAD releases are not so frequent as to make autoupdating important.

No there is no an update feature, plus, you not specify what version are you using and on what OS you are running FC, to make thing short. informations required by:Machinist#1 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 2:29 pm Hi,

Re: New Release (0.20)
You do not need to uninstall old versions to load a new version. I have 5 or 6 versions active, without any problems.Machinist#1 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 10:42 pm Do I need to uninstall version 0.19 before installing the new version 0.20 ??
The only potential issue is that the default installation uses the same user configuration location for any version. Usually this will not cause any problems, but in some cases it is possible that you might want a different set of parameters for different FC versions. (I don't.)

Re: New Release (0.20)
It's not necessary to uninstall but you'll end up with two versions of FreeCAD installed, if you don't have a specific reason to keep 0.19 around you should just uninstall it, I suggest testing your most important files in 0.20 and if everything is fine uninstall 0.19 afterwards.
