updates to platform

[billywantstoknow]

Hi Why does NT not have a built in updater for the platform vs. a popup that tells me to go and download the newest edition? As I can tell all of my software I currently have on my machine, just has an update button or check for latest version. Realize it's not a big deal but was just wondering why yall take that road versus a simplified method for users in general?
TIA

Hi if I download the new update I lost my indicators and my stuff ?

Hello billywantstoknow,

Thank you for your post. NinjaTrader will generate a message regarding the update but the date of the message can vary on the version and if update factors are required, for example. I suggest subscribing to the News and Announcements section of our forum below to ensure an email is sent upon update.
