Uh hello guys, in this video I'll show
0:02
you how to update Visual Studio Code to
0:04
the latest version. So there are two
0:06
ways by which you can do that. The first
0:09
way you go to the menu section right
0:11
here and right here you
0:15
go to the help section right here inside
0:18
the menu and you actually see this
0:23
right here. So if any new update is
0:26
there you will see this
0:28
check for update section. So you restart
0:31
to update. So once you click this it
0:33
will automatically do the part for you.
0:36
So once you click it it will
0:39
automatically restart
0:41
and if any new update will be there it
0:44
will do the updating that directly
0:46
inside the back route.
0:49
So you can see it is now installing this
0:51
new update as
0:55
once it launches right here. Now it is
0:57
actually using the latest version. So
0:59
once again if I go to the help menu
1:01
right here and you will see this option
1:04
right here check for updates. So you
1:06
just need to click this section to
1:08
actually see if any new update is there
1:11
and you will see this model window that
1:13
there are currently no updates
1:15
available. So if you're using the latest
1:17
version, you will see this model window.
1:20
This is the recommended and the most
1:22
basic way by which you can check for
1:24
updates. And there is also this about
1:27
button as well. So it exactly tells you
1:29
which version of VS Code you are using.
1:32
So 1.1.0.9.5.
1:36
So you can actually see the exact
1:39
version you are using. And there is also
1:41
the second way by which you can download
1:44
a fresh copy of VS code. So just you go
1:47
to the v uh Google and simply type in VS
1:50
code download
1:52
and right here from the official website
1:54
you can download the latest version. So
1:57
for your respective operating system so
1:59
Windows, Linux, Mac. So depending upon
2:03
your operating system. So once you click
2:05
it,
2:07
an EXE file will get downloaded
2:10
automatically.
2:12
So it will use the latest version.
2:16
And for doing this, you do need to in
2:19
uninstall your VS code. So just right
2:22
click open file location.
2:25
So you need to completely remove the
2:28
existing VS code.
2:30
So just write open file location. Uh
2:34
first of all just in uninstall the VS
2:37
code completely to install a fresh copy
2:41
which will use the latest version.
2:44
So now you can see it start installing
2:46
the .exe file right here. So you can
2:49
directly install the latest version
2:50
through this way as well. So the
2:53
[snorts] most basic way I already showed
2:55
you. You go to the menu section, go to
2:57
help and check for updates.
3:00
So in this easy way you can download the
3:03
VS code to the latest version.
