Automatic update from version 7 to 8 is not executed

Please let us know what you are using Katalon Studio for?

  1. Open Katalon Studio (v 7.6.2 x64, on Windows 10)
  2. Help → Check for updates.
  3. Download.
  4. Install an Re-launch.

I wait and wait but nothing happens.

Would be great if you would separate Katalon Studio executable stuff from Katalon configuration. Then maybe I could update manually without loosing my settings.

BTW. Maybe you could add some information what happens after “Install an Re-launch”. Should I wait for some window to appear? Can I check if some process is running?
https://docs.katalon.com/katalon-studio/docs/auto-updater.html

How would your work be affected if this issue has not been resolved?

  1. I can continue my job, but my performance is lower than expected

Operating System

  • Windows 10 x64.

Then, what is your problem?

KS is not updated. Nothing happened. I’m still on KS 7.6.2.
I cannot see any installer in Downalods folder.
I don’t know how to update manually without loosing my settings.
