## Upgrade through Windows installer

Download the latest [UiPath Test Manager installation package](https://download.uipath.com/UiPathTestManager.msi) and choose one of the two upgrade scenarios displayed in the **Upgrade to higher versions** and **Upgrade to newer versions when Test Manager credentials cannot be recovered** sections.

:::important
* The previous configuration settings are
retained and already filled in based on your upgrade scenario.
* IIS needs to be enabled during the
upgrade.

## Upgrade to higher versions

You need to provide the Identity Installation Token. You can [generate the installation token through UiPath Identity Management](https://docs.uipath.com/orchestrator/standalone/2025.10/user-guide/host-authentication-settings#installation-key) by logging in as the host tenant.

Open the UiPath Test Manager installation package, proceed through the license agreement, and then paste the installation token in the **Identity Installation Token**.

Select **Upgrade** to continue and confirm if you have backed up your database. Test Manager is installed on your machine.

## Upgrade to newer versions when Test Manager credentials cannot be recovered

In a typical scenario, upgrading to newer versions only requires a new Identity Installation Token and upgrading through the Test Manager installation package.

If you have lost access to your old Test Manager account, you need to perform a parallel installation of the same Test Manager version on the same server hosting your existing version of Test Manager. Afterwards, you can upgrade to newer versions.

:::note
You have the higher version of Orchestrator installed on a server, while the old version of Test Manager is installed on a different server.

## Before you upgrade

Perform a backup of the existing Test Manager installation folder, located on your machine in Program Files, alongside a snapshot of the server that is hosting the product.
