If a newer version of Wordfast Pro is available, you will see a prompt to download it when you launch the program:
In order to update, simply click the Yes button. This will download the latest version, remove the existing one, and perform the update.
In case the update fails to start or is interrupted, you can update Wordfast Pro manually by following the steps below. Do not worry about your projects, TMs or glossaries – the installer will keep them intact. Your license will be preserved as well.
