# How to update

{% hint style="warning" %}
As with any update, *things may break*. Probably not due to the modpack itself, but maybe your launcher, your added mods or your hard drive. [Backups are recommended.](/backup-and-uninstall.md)

Do not update the modpack's mods manually, unless it is a legacy version and you know what you're doing.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
If you follow these instructions, your added mods and most modpack mods' settings will persist. If you want, you can [reset your settings](/update-instructions/reset-options.md) to get the latest modpack configurations.

Always update the modpack first and then your own mods (if any).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://wiki.download.fo/update-instructions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
