# 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).
