    ‍
  • How can I update?
    To update the software is very simple, just download the installer through the "Download Version" link in the Current Version, give it two clicks to execute it and click Next until the end of the process (keeping the same folder that you originally installed the program in).
    ‍
  • How to upgrade on more than one terminal?
    It’s necessary to update your NEXTAR on all computers, keeping them all in the same version. To install NEXTAR you must open and run the installer on the computer you want to update.

Always save a backup of your database

  • NEXTAR DOESN’T have an automatic backup system
    ‍    Although NEXTAR doesn’t delete your database when updating the version, there is no backup on our servers. All data in your database, such as products, customers, suppliers, and sales are stored only on your computer. We always recommend keeping an updated backup in case you experience any problems with your computer or decide to format it.
