Manual Update​

danger

It is recommended to perform a manual update only in two scenarios: when a new remote server has been added or when the web update process has failed. The web update ensures that your database is updated before updating the files. Neglecting to update the database while updating may result in TCAdmin failing to start or encountering unpredictable errors.

Manual Update Procedures​

  • Log in to your server's remote desktop.
  • Go to Start > Run and enter the following command. Replace C:\Program Files\TCAdmin2 with the path to your TCAdmin installation folder
  • If the update completes successfully you should not see any errors in the update console and the Monitor and Service Manager services should be started automatically.
tip

Replace 2.0.173.0 with the version you want to update to:

"C:\Program Files\TCAdmin2\Monitor\TCAdminUpdateTool.exe" 2.0.173.0
