  • STEP 2

Open the Container Manager Package. On the left sidebar click on Image. Identify your Portainer image, then click Update available. Follow the instructions in the image below.

🔥Troubleshooting: If you don’t see the Update available button, this means that you have accessed the NAS only recently. You have to wait almost 12 hours before you can see the Update available button. Container Manager, once launched, needs at least 24/48 hours to see whether or not there are new images to update.

  • STEP 3

Click Update then Update. Follow the instructions in the image below.
