Hi guys
I bought a CS3 about two years ago and have not performed any of the available updates from Marklin.
My question is, do I need to download and install every update from the beginning or do I just download the latest update and it will incorporate every update that has come before it?
Many thanks in advance
Aussie Phil

Phil, you continue telling it to perform updates until a red dot no longer appears in the update available box or window. Some take longer than others. Wait until the update successful prompt shows before moving on.

Generally the updates are cumulative - you only need to apply the current one.

When there is a specific need to be at a certain version before upgrading to a new version, the manufacturer will specify that in the update release notes. An example is when ESU updated the Ecos from v3 to v4 - you had to be at a certain v3.x level before you could go to v4.x - sometimes known as a 2 step upgrade.

Thanks for the advice Bigdaddy - hope things are good across the ditch!
