Updates
The user need not worry if they have the latest
version of the software nor do they need to check for new versions of the
application. As part of its opening process the SLIDRet 4.0 software verifies
to see if a more recent version is available. If a newer version is available
the software will automatically prompt the user with a message similar to the
following:
Selecting OK will seamlessly install and start the new
version on your computer giving you access to new features or fixes that have
been released.
A user may choose to Skip the application update
however this is not recommended as the results could be unforeseen.
