Updating Miranda NG
PluginUpdater is responsible for keeping your Miranda up-to-date. It checks for updates for all installed plugins and other components like icon sets and langpack regularly (depending on its settings) and performs updating automatically.
Version choice
If you want to switch to Development version, choose it in Options → Services → Plugin Updater. It is updated more often so you'll be able to take advantage of new features sooner. To be on a safe side make a backup of your Miranda NG installation folder before switching to development version.
Selective update of components
PluginUpdater remembers user's choice of the components in the list of updates. If you have a custom langpack or an icon set (e.g., Proto_Jabber.dll) which you don't want to update, uncheck the corresponding items in the list. You need to do this once, those components will remain unchecked during the next updates and thus won't get updated.

Upgrading means substitution of all the core Miranda IM files and plugins with their versions for Miranda NG. Due to major changes in the core, Miranda NG is not compatible with plugins for Miranda IM (see Differences from Miranda IM). If any of your current Miranda IM plugins is not adapted for Miranda NG, check Список плагинов to see if there's some plugin for the same or similar functionality.
When migrating to Miranda NG you can use your Miranda IM profile (.dat file). This means your old settings, contacts and history will be kept.

Works only with dbx_mmap driver. If your Miranda IM use another driver (for example, dbx_sqlite), you should export all settings and history, create new IM (dbx_mmap) profile and import setting/history.

Download IM Updater plugin, unpack the whole archive into your Miranda IM program folder and then run or restart the program. IM Updater will:
- Replace the core files and the appropriate plugins with their NG equivalents.
- Rename old Unicode plugins that have the trailing W in their names.
- Make a backup of any obsolete plugins.
After the first update, you will have Miranda NG 0.94.9. Updater should notify you that a newer (last) stable version is available. Or you can check for updates manually via the main menu. After the second update, you will have the newest stable version.
You'll probably face some problems with skins. See v0.94.3 release notes for instructions on how to solve them.
