Hi guys,

I am currently using Linux Mint with automatic updates installed and I keep seeing application updates from LibreWolf, LibreOffice etc.

I have downloaded these through the application manager as well. But what about applications that I install outside of the management, such as the Mullvad browser, are they also automatically updated via the update manager?

    How can I manually keep these programs up to date? Is there a command or an option in the applications or do I have to check the website for updates? Sorry for the stupid questions, I just don’t know anything about it.

      Not a stupid question, we all had to learn this at some point!

      You’ll have to check the website. In some cases (such as FreeTube) you’ll get a notification inside the app itself to go download the update. It’s still up to you to download and install though.
