Hello!
What is the right way to do updates in MX Linux KDE 64 bits?
Would it be through Discover or through commands?
I didn't find the MX-Updater icon on the MX KDE panel.

Thanks!

I don't use KDE, but you can just click on the green updater icon in the panel and let it run the updates.

Both are correct. And they are not the only correct ones, you can use the "MX package installer" or install some other package manager like synaptic or aptitude or...

Hello! I haven't installed MX KDE yet, I'm testing it and it's working perfectly. As soon as it's on the computer I'll pass on the information, thank you.

If it's not present in your installed version, you should use Discover to install MX Package Installer and then use it for updates.

Ok, I understand! In the case of MX KDE, which already comes with Discover, I will do the updates with this tool.

It is green when updates are available. Otherwise it is an outline of an open box.
