NewPush SecureBackup/SecureSync - Checking the SecureBackup/SecureSync Agent version Print

  • 1


To prevent possible performance and sync issues, we recommend that end users utilize the latest version of the SecureBackup/SecureSync agent. By default, the Autoupdate tool, which is installed as part of the SecureBackup/SecureSync agent installation package, will check and install updates on a regular basis. In some instances, however, agents might not update as expected.

Step 1: Find the End User's Current Agent Version

As an administrator, you can use the Machines tab to find agents that are out-of-date.

  1. Log into the administrative web portal.
  2. In the left-hand organization navigation menu, select the appropriate organization. 
  3. Click the Machines tab. The Machines tab displays, listing all existing machines currently registered in the system.
  4. Click the Needs Update button to filter and view all agents that need updated.

Alternatively, end users can find their current agent version listed in their local machine.

  1. On the end user's local machine, hover over the system tray icon. The current agent version will display in the notification pop-up bubble.


  2. Alternatively, in the Microsoft Windows Programs and Features tool, you will see the latest agent version in the list of programs.

Step 2: If Necessary, Update the Agent

  1. On the affected user's local machine, navigate to agent installation directory (by default, the installation directory is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Synced Tool\bin).
  2. Click to run autoupdate.exe.

If you continue to experience issues or have trouble upgrading agents, please contact NewPush Support as always at [email protected]
