Hey 👋

To update Cockpit you have two options:

**Via console (since v2.2.2):**

Run the following command in the root of your cockpit installation:

```auto
./tower app:update

```

**Manually:**

Download the latest release from [releases • Cockpit files](https://files.getcockpit.com/?dir=releases)

Override everything **EXCEPT** the `config` and `storage` folder
