How to upgrade to newer engine version

image

How do I upgrade from 5.1.1 to 5.2 and move my current project, Do I need to have both engines installed seperately and remove the older one after. I’m very new to unreal and have never done this before. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi MooseGiblets,

You don’t need both engines installed - but if you have space, it pays to keep both until you’re happy that the upgrade went well.

Once you’ve installed 5.2, just open your project from there - it will prompt you if you want to make a copy and upgrade that (I usually also backup before hand too).
