As above, update to 3.5.1 by downloading it at https://github.com/cumulusmx/CumulusMX/releases/tag/b3072.
 
===If you use a 3.5.x release ====
 
My advice is to update directly to 3.7.0 or any subsequent release available at [[Software]]. This is because several 3.6.y releases have problems.
 
But there are actions you need to do depending on what features you use in MX:
*If you use database tables, be aware that the schema (Column names that must be in a table) varies between different versions in this range.
**The updating feature in MX will only work if all the columns named in that update already exist in the database table it is trying to update.
**Look at individual release announcements to see the tools provided for adding the columns added at particular versions.
*If you have your own customised web pages, then there are changes to web tags that might lead to you needing to edit your web pages.
*If you use commas to separate integer and decimal parts of real numbers, then these releases give you useful extra functionality that will let you do more with scripts.
