Updating UiPath Robot
The update process ensures that both Studio and Robot are upgraded to the latest available version.
Before updating your Robot version, check the compatibility matrix.
When planning for an update, keep the following recommendations in mind:
-
Preserve the Robot operational mode: Service Mode or User Mode.
-
Match Robot and Studio versions. Refer to the compatibility matrix for guidance.
-
UiPathRobot.msi
cannot update an olderUiPathStudio.msi
installation.
When you have Orchestrator installed on the same machine as the Robot, we recommend updating your Orchestrator version first, followed by the Robot version. To apply the new settings, reconnect the Robot to Orchestrator.
In the attended scenario, an update prompt is displayed with the following options:

-
Later - Postpones the update. The notification is muted, and you can initiate the update process at your convenience. You can launch the update process by clicking Check for updates in the UiPath UI icon located in your system tray.
Once you approve the prompt, the update service gets the confirmation and starts the update process. Without a response in 24 hours from the first notification, the update installs automatically.

Community Preview installations running version 2021.8 or later can automatically update to the latest Community Preview release.
Closing Studio during the automatic update process causes the Robot to lose the connection to Orchestrator. This issue does not occur with licensed installations.
