The manual update of Scriptcase is performed using the compressed `.zip`**,** file available in the [Scriptcase download area](https://www.scriptcase.net/download/#page-articles).

This procedure replaces only the base Scriptcase files, which are responsible for the structure of the tool. The existing projects in the environment are not changed, removed, or overwritten during the update.

> Before starting the procedure, we recommend creating a backup of the projects and the current installation as a security measure.

### 1. Creating the backup

The backup can be created through Scriptcase itself by accessing:

```
Settings > Administration > Services > Backup
```

> *Wait for the backup to finish before downloading the file through the tool interface.*

It is also possible to [perform a manual backup](https://help.scriptcase.net/portal/pt/kb/articles/backup-pt) by copying the current installation folder to another safe location.

### 2. Downloading the update file

Access the website download tab and [download the latest version of Scriptcase](https://www.scriptcase.net/download/#page-articles) in ZIP format for Windows.

The downloaded file will be used to replace the base files of the current installation.

### 3. Extracting the compressed file

After completing the download, extract the contents of the `.zip` file to a temporary folder.

Example:\
C:\Users\User\Downloads\scriptcase\scriptcase-10.0.000

Inside the extracted folder (scriptcase-10.0.000), you will find the files of the new Scriptcase version.

### 4. Copying the files from the new version

Select all files and folders from the new Scriptcase version.

Copy this content.

### 5 - Pasting the files into the current installation

Paste the copied files into the current Scriptcase folder.

Destination example:

```
C:\Program Files\NetMake\v9-php82\wwwroot\scriptcase
```

When Windows asks for confirmation to replace the existing files, confirm the replacement.

### 6. Waiting for the copy process to finish and accessing Scriptcase

Wait until all files are copied and replaced.

After the file replacement is complete, access Scriptcase normally through the browser.

Use the same address used before the update.

Example:

<http://127.0.0.1:8093/scriptcase>
