Updating the Group Alias Database

With some updates (not all) the Group alias database will need to be updated.

Back up your current database​

Firstly, backing up your SQL Database is recommended!

If you have already updated the management center you can still back up your database, as updating the database requires additional manual steps (below)

Management Center Version Update​

Next, run the installer for the latest MindLink version and follow the installation wizard. This process will only update your MindLink installation, not the database.
