version upgrade
Newer release installation
A version upgrade is the process of moving from one release of software to a newer one, typically involving new features, improved performance, or security fixes.
The term distinguishes routine updates from major transitions: The version upgrade from Windows 10 to 11 required a fresh install.
In software licensing, version upgrades may require additional payment, unlike minor patches or bug fixes.
