Windows IoT update
==================
Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box may occasionally need an update to work
properly.
The following processes cover the :ref:`uninstallation <iot/config/uninstall-windows-iot>` and
:ref:`re-installation <iot/config/re-install-windows-iot>` of the Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT
(Internet of Things)` box.
.. _iot/config/uninstall-windows-iot:
Uninstalling Windows IoT
------------------------
Prior to upgrading the Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box, the previous version
should be uninstalled first.
.. important::
Before uninstalling a previous version of the Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)`
box, ensure that there is a newer version of Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box
available, compared to the version currently installed. To do so, navigate to the `Odoo Nightly
builds <https://nightly.odoo.com/>`_ page.
On the :guilabel:`Odoo Nightly builds` page, navigate to :menuselection:`Builds (stable version)
--> windows/` to view the date next to the :file:`odoo_(version).latest.exe` file; where
*(version)* is equal to the version of Odoo (e.g. 16.0, 17.0). The latest version of the Windows
virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box can be downloaded by selecting this file, or it is
always available at the `Odoo Download <https://odoo.com/download/>`_ page.
Uninstalling the Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box is done through the Windows
program manager.
On any version of Windows, search for `program` to open the :menuselection:`Programs --> Programs
and Features` section of the :guilabel:`Control Panel`. Then, select :guilabel:`Uninstall or change
a program`. Next, search for `Odoo`, and click the :guilabel:`... (three dot)` menu on the
:guilabel:`Odoo.exe` program to uninstall.
Confirm the uninstallation, and follow the steps to uninstall through the Odoo uninstall wizard.
.. _iot/config/re-install-windows-iot:
Download and re-install
-----------------------
The latest version of the Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box can be downloaded
from the `Odoo Nightly builds <https://nightly.odoo.com/>`_ page or it is always available at the
`Odoo Download <https://odoo.com/download/>`_ page.
To download from the :guilabel:`Odoo Nightly builds` page, navigate to :menuselection:`Builds
(stable version) --> windows/` to and select the :file:`odoo_(version).latest.exe` file; where
*(version)* is equal to the version of Odoo (e.g. 16.0, 17.0).
To download from the :guilabel:`Odoo Download` page, find the section for the version of Odoo (e.g.
16.0, 17.0), and select the :guilabel:`Download` button for :guilabel:`Windows`.
Next, install and setup the downloaded Odoo :file:`.exe` file. After the instructions screen, click
:guilabel:`Next` to start the installation, and agree to the :abbr:`TOS (Terms of Service)`.
During the next step of the re-installation, select :guilabel:`Odoo IoT` from the :guilabel:`Select
the type of install` drop-down menu.
.. example::
For reference, the following should be installed:
- :guilabel:`Odoo server`
- :guilabel:`Odoo IoT`
- :guilabel:`Nginx WebServer`
- :guilabel:`Ghostscript interpreter`
Ensure there is enough space on the computer for the installation, then click :guilabel:`Next`.
Set the destination and complete the installation
-------------------------------------------------
To complete the re-installation, select the :guilabel:`Destination Folder`, and click
:guilabel:`Install`.
.. warning::
Choosing `C:\\odoo` as the install location allows for the *Nginx* server to start. Odoo's
Windows virtual :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box software should **not** be installed inside
any of the Windows user's directories. Doing so does **not** allow for *Nginx* to initialize.
The installation may take a few minutes. When complete, click :guilabel:`Next` to continue.
Then, ensure that the :guilabel:`Start Odoo` box is checked, and click :guilabel:`Finish`. After
installation, the Odoo server runs, and automatically opens `http://localhost:8069` on a web
browser. The webpage should display the :abbr:`IoT (Internet of Things)` box homepage.
.. tip::
A :ref:`restart <iot/restart_windows_iot>` of the Windows IoT program may be necessary if the web
browser does not display anything.
