NoMachine software currently can be updated in two ways. Either by selecting the automatic updates option in the user interface, or manually by downloading the latest package from our website and then installing according to the standard procedure for your operating system. When installing a NoMachine software update, administrator credentials (admin user and password) will be requested.
 

Using automatic updates:

The NoMachine software by default fetches our repositories every two days but updates are never installed automatically.
