# Updates

> Install a Studio update and check the add-ins in your connected applications.

## Update Studio

When an update is ready, click **Update** in Studio and follow the prompts. Studio restarts to apply it, so finish any running task and save your work first.

To check manually, open **Settings → Updates → Check for updates**. You can find the installed Studio version at the bottom of Settings.

## Restart connected applications when needed

An update can include new add-ins for Revit, AutoCAD, Rhino or Blender. If the installer asks you to close an application, save its documents and close it before continuing.

A running application can still have the previous add-in loaded. If Studio reports an outdated add-in or asks for a restart, close and reopen that application, then reconnect its document. A Studio restart alone does not reload an add-in inside Revit or another application.

## Check the add-ins

1. Open **Settings → Repair** and click **Check add-ins**.
2. Read the status for the application you use.
3. If an add-in is missing or needs repair, follow the repair action shown in Studio.
4. Restart the affected application after installation or repair.
5. Open your project and select it in **Connected Apps**. Send a simple request, such as “What is the active view?”, to check the connection.

## If the update does not complete

Close Revit, AutoCAD, Rhino and Blender, then retry the update. After Studio opens, run **Check add-ins** and repair any affected integration.

If Studio will not open on Windows, check Task Manager for an existing Ideatura process. End it and launch Studio again.

If the problem remains, use the **bug icon** in Studio to report it. Include your Studio version, application version, the message you see and the steps that led to it. See [Troubleshooting](https://docs.ideatura.ai/help/troubleshooting.md) for other connection problems.
