Storage Explorer checks for updates every hour, and downloads them when they're available. User acceptance is required, however, to start the install process. If users choose to update at a different time, they can manually check for update. On Windows and Linux, users can check for updates by selecting **Check for Updates** from the **Help** menu. On macOS, **Check for Updates** can be found under the **app menu**. Users may also directly go to the [Storage Explorer](https://azure.microsoft.com/features/storage-explorer/) download page to download and install the latest release.

Starting with version 1.14.1, any Storage Explorer release that is greater than 12 months old will be considered out of support. Starting with 1.31.0, a release's age will be based on the release date of its minor version. All releases before 1.14.1 will be considered out of support starting on July 14, 2021. While a version is in support, Microsoft will endeavor to keep the version working as was intended at its release. Once a version is out of support, it is no longer guaranteed to work as intended. For a list of all releases, their release date, and their end of support date, see [Releases](#releases).
