+# AyaNova Windows IIS hosted platform upgrade
+
+The upgrade process involves stopping the AyaNova IIS site, replacing the AyaNova program files with the latest version and restarting the AyaNova IIS site.
+
+These instructions assume the original installation steps were followed without changes, if you had to make changes adjust accordingly.
+
+### 1\. Backup
+
+Before proceeding, [make a backup](ops-form-backup.md) of the database **and** the attachment files and store it in a safe place.
+
+If you do not have a fresh backup there will be no way to recover from potential data loss or damage.
+
+### 2\. Download setup file
+
+[https://www.ayanova.com/download/ayanova-windows-x64-lan-setup.exe](https://www.ayanova.com/download/ayanova-windows-x64-lan-setup.exe)
+
+### 3\. Stop the AyaNova IIS site
+
+Stop the AyaNova site in the IIS manager:

+
+### 4\. Setup
+
+Run the setup file downloaded in step 2 above.
+
+**IMPORTANT**: You MUST NOT CHECK the option 'Start AyaNova server when Windows starts'
+
+![SCREENSHOT OF setup window un checked server start with windows](img/ops-install-windows-lan-uncheck.png)
+
+This is because IIS will be responsible for starting and stopping AyaNova. If you do select start with windows re-run the installer and uncheck it and finish the installation again.
+
+Click next to continue to the next step:
+
+You will be prompted to go to the asp.net core download page:
+
+![SCREENSHOT OF question about setup asp.net](img/ops-install-windows-lan-aspnetcore.png)
+
+Select No.
+
+You will next be prompted to go the PostgreSQL installer page:
+
+![SCREENSHOT OF question about setup pgsql](img/ops-install-windows-lan-postgressql.png)
+
+Select No.
+
+The files will be updated and a final prompt will appear and ask if you want to overwrite the config.json file during setup:
+
+![image prompt overwrite config.json file](img/ops-upgrade-windows-single-overwrite-config-prompt.png)
+
+Select **Keep the existing file**.
+
+If you select the overwrite option by accident you will need to re-edit the config.json file as you did during the [initial installation](ops-install-windows-iis.md#5-ayanova-server-configuration) once installation has completed before restarting the IIS AyaNova site.
+
+### 5\. Start the AyaNova IIS site
+
+Start the AyaNova site in the IIS manager:
+
+![image start IIS site](img/ops-upgrade-windows-iis-start-site.png)
+
+Open the AyaNova web app as you normally would, the login form will open in your browser and after a short delay you should see the page refresh and the new version number be displayed at the bottom of the login form.
