Resource Updates should only be applied if SwiftSort is not open. Application Updates should always be applied prior to applying Resource Updates as Resource Updates are dependant on the version in use.
 
To apply updates access to https://updates.thesoftwarebureau.com (Public IP 3.8.228.18) is needed . To route https traffic via a proxy see Proxy Server.
 
For installations that have no internet access due to security restrictions upgrades can also be applied locally by manually downloading the update files from an unrestricted machine. Please contact support for further instructions and to be added to the relevant upgrade email subscriber list.
