# For Firefox 3.5 and above, SeaMonkey 2.0 and above, and Thunderbird 3.0 and above run the following from the command prompt<br><pre>C:\app-update\updater.exe C:\app-update\</pre><br>For Firefox 3.0.x run the following from the command prompt<br><pre>C:\app-update\updater.exe C:\app-update\ 0</pre>'''Note:''' The "0" parameter passed on the command line specifies the PID of a process to wait on before applying the update. When applying updates manually this should be 0 to disable the wait step.
# After the update has completed a file named <code>update.status</code> will be created in the '''outside''' directory. Open the <code>update.status</code> status file in an editor (e.g. notepad.exe). If the update is successful then the file will contain the text "succeeded". If it does not contain the text "succeeded", then the <code>update.log</code> file may be consulted to diagnose at what step the update failed. A failed update should leave the original application's installation intact. '''DO NOT''' continue to the next section unless the update succeeded.
 
'''Updating the uninstall.log and registry'''
# Copy the <code>update.log</code> to the <code>uninstall</code> directory inside of the application's installation directory.
# Rename it to <code>uninstall.update</code>.
