After the fi les are copied, open a browser and navigate to your Umbraco instance. The Umbraco
Upgrade Wizard launches and guides you through the process to complete the site upgrade.
In addition, you must remove any cache fi les located in the
/app_data/TEMP/ folder, such as those gen-
erated by the client dependency loader, the Examine Search indexer, and the Umbraco document cache.
Unless explicitly stated in the release notes, a patch release doesn’t include data-
base changes. In this case, the upgrade wizard simply updates the current version
number in
web.config. Instead of running the wizard, you can simply change this
version number before copying the fi les to prevent the wizard from running. To
do so, simply change the value of the
<umbracoConfigurationStatus> key under
<appSettings> in web.config to the current version number. For instance:
<add key=”umbracoConfigurationStatus” value=”4.5.2” />
Verify permissions! If you skip the Upgrade Wizard, make sure to verify that
you have correct fi le permissions for directories because the fi le copy process can
reset them. See step 3 of the “Installing Umbraco Manually” for reference.
