Updating joomla extensions and versions

Posted on June 28, 2017

It’s been a very long time since I did this last and I can’t recall how I did it. When I log into the control panel it shows that I can update the version to 3.7.2 and that there are 6 extension updates available. I wrote in my notes something about making sure not to unzip the zipped file if it is zipped. I’ve already created a backup of everything, I just forget the actual update process and when I search the last piece of information was from 3 years ago…any help would be great! Thanks

Hi @hansen, I’m updating from 3.6.2
