In the next few lines of this tutorial we will show you how to actually handle successfully the upgrade process.\n<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"title_line\">\n\t1) Install the Upgrade Module<br \/>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\n\tFor quite a while the updating process of the PrestaShop application is fully automated and the applications provides quite an easy to use module which will help the administrators to easily and most importantly successfully upgrade to the latest version.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSince the module is not installed by default the first thing you will need to do in the updating process is to install it. In order to do so you will need to login into the Back Office of your PrestaShop based Store and to access the <strong>Modules&gt;Modules<\/strong> menu.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/jsmwebsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/upgrade_1.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7103\" height=\"366\" src=\"https:\/\/jsmwebsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/upgrade_1.png\" width=\"651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jsmwebsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/upgrade_1.png 651w, https:\/\/jsmwebsolutions.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/upgrade_1-300x169.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 651px) 100vw, 651px\" \/><\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\">There you will need to find the updating module called &ldquo;<\/span><strong style=\"font-family: proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\">1-Click Upgrade &#8211; AutoUpgrade<\/strong><span style=\"font-family: proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;\">&rdquo; and to respectively install the same on your Store.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"title_line\">\n\t<span class=\"steplabel\">Step 2<\/span><a id=\"step2\" name=\"step2\"><\/a> Configur<strong>e<\/strong> and Initiate the Upgrading Process<br \/>\n<\/h3>\n<p>\n\tOnce the module is installed you will be taken to the configuration page of the module so you can configure it further before the actual upgrade.
