Update Linux is an important stage in the operation of the system, which allows not only to improve security, but also to supplement the programs and the components of the system with new features.

Before starting work, be sure to back up all the necessary data. There is a chance that the update will be unsuccessful, in connection with which you need to be prepared for reinstalling Linux in case of unforeseen circumstances. Please note that it is recommended to update the system as versions of the versions: i.e. Not missing intermediate issues OS. Otherwise it is possible that such actions will damage the system.

In combination, update the Linux system can be 2 ways: through the graphical interface or through the terminal. But before proceeding with this process, it is advisable to update the installed applications. In the system we find "Programs and Updates".
3
We are interested in the tab with the name "updates". Go to it and in the column "updates that have not included in the official release" put a tick. We also find the Count "Notify me about the release of the new Ubuntu version" and in the selection menu, set "with the availability of any new version".
4
After confirmation, the system will ask the user password. We enter it and look forward to updating the parameters.
5
After that, you can move directly to the update of the system itself. Go to the terminal and start writing "updating applications".
6
A window will open with applications that can be updated. On a row with them, Linux will also update the system. Confirm the actions by pressing the "Set Now" button.
7
There is a chance that the system will update exclusively applications without affecting the update of the system itself. In this case, re-open the Application Update window. Linux will give a request for updating your OS. Confirm all actions, at the end click "start updating". We are waiting for the update installation, and then restart the computer.

As mentioned above, there is a different way of updating, which is also desirable to apply after updating applications. This method is most simplified and will not take much time. By logging in to the terminal, open the command line, start entering the command: "Sudo Apt-Get Update".
9
After the program update is completed, enter the following "sudo do-release-upgrade" command. Confirm the action by pressing the "Y" key and wait for your system updates.
10
After the Linux update is completed, you need to connect third-party repositories that, after the update process is completed, can be disconnected. To do this, you need to enter "Programs and Updates", but with administrator rights. We tear off the command prompt and enter the Sudo Software-Properties-GTK command.
11
After opening the window, we find the "Other software" tab and put the box near the corresponding graph.
That's all the methods with which you can upgrade OS Linux. Update the system as new versions are released at all. But the update can correct some possible bugs associated with the previous version, or improve the work of some components, not to mention a number of possible innovations.
