### MEGA Cloud
*(since version 2.4)*

If you use the MEGA cloud service integration, please make sure to update your installed MEGAcmd version to 1.0.0, which is done automatically with the Windows installer if MEGAcmd checkbox is selected during install and for the snap package for Linux, other operating systems must update manually.
You can download MEGAcmd 1.0.0 from [https://mega.nz/cmd](https://mega.nz/cmd).
If you use the MEGA cloud service integration, please make sure to update your installed MEGAcmd version to 1.1.0, which is done automatically with the Windows installer if MEGAcmd checkbox is selected during install and for the snap package for Linux, other operating systems must update manually.
You can download MEGAcmd 1.1.0 from [https://mega.nz/cmd](https://mega.nz/cmd).

### Compatibility
Version 2.5 **doesn't change the internal database format** so it remains compatible with 2.4 clients.
Version 2.6 **upgrades the internal database format** to a new version (v4), making it incompatible with older versions. Your database schema will be automatically upgraded during the first start. Older software versions using the cloud sync will show a warning about incompatible database versions recommending to upgrade the software version to resolve the issue.

## How to Update
First, it is highly recommended to create a backup before proceeding (**File->Backup**).
