However, if an update is available, a screen similar to the below one will pop up. To get the update, click Get New Version
Once you click Get New Version, FastCAM will begin downloading the update, which will show in the status bar
Once it finishes downloading, FastCAM will exit, and you will be prompted to extract the update. Click Extract
You will then be prompted to overwrite the currently existing file. Select Yes to All
Once that completes, you can relaunch FastCAM 8, and check the version update has worked by going to Help > About FastCAM menu, and checking the Version
