Hello FME Community users,

 

I am trying to upgrade FME FLow from 2024.0.3 to 2024.2.1. I looked into this article 

https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Flow/AdminGuide/Upgrade-in-Place-Same-Machine.htm

Just wondering if there is a better compared to install/uninstall as mentioned above. Such as done on ESRI side.

Unfortunately you do need to completely uninstall FME Flow from a machine before installing a new version. There is no method of incrementally upgrading.

Make sure you create a backup and make a copy of your encryption key before performing the uninstall!
