Select the Content Producer automatically check for updates option, and from the drop-down list box, select the time interval within which you want the system to check for updates: Daily, Weekly, Monthly. The default is Weekly. z

Select the Manually check for updates option. Choosing this option prohibits the system from automatically checking for updates.

To immediately check for updates, click Check Now then click OK.

You either get a message with information about updates, or a message that your version of Producer is up-to-date.

NOTE
