Managing Installed Environments

Solsta allows users to manually update or automatically keep their installed environments up to date.

Enable or Disable Automatic Updates

  1. Open Installed Environments
    • Launch the Solsta Desktop Application
    • Click the Installed Environments tab
  2. Locate the Auto-Update Icon
    • Each installed environment has an Auto-Update toggle icon on the right-hand side.
  3. Toggle the Setting
    • Click the Auto-Update icon to switch between modes:
      • Green Icon: Auto-updates enabled (default).
      • Gray Icon: Auto-updates disabled.

Note: By default, all installed environments are opted into automatic updates.

Tip: You can set different auto-update preferences for each installed environment individually.

When Automatic Updates Are Enabled

  • Solsta checks for new releases periodically.
  • If an update is available, it downloads and installs the latest versions for all repositories in that environment.
