Updating TiddlyMap is the same procedure as installing it. In _no case_ you need to remove your previous installation. Did you install it per dragndrop? Then you need to go to http://tiddlymap.org and click on installation instructions follow the steps. Do you use TiddlyMap with TiddlyMap in nodejs mode? Then you need follow these instructions https://github.com/felixhayashi/TW5-TiddlyMap#when-running-tiddlywiki-in-nodejs. > Will I lose my views and filter if I do so? Theoretically: No, your views, filters, positions, styles (most of the styling at least) should always remain intact after an update. Even though TM is in beta, I always try to make sure that I do not break existing stuff. If your wiki internal structure is not up to date, TiddlyMap will try to fix that with a dedicated Fixer module <https://github.com/felixhayashi/TW5-TiddlyMap/blob/master/src/plugins/felixhayashi/tiddlymap/lib.fixer.js> However, some minor aspects may change. Also TiddlyMap behaviours might change. *disclaimer* It can also happen, that an update breaks your wiki by accident. So always make a backup before upgrading, then test if everything works fine (e.g. add a node or create a dummy view) and if this is the case it should be fine to work with the new wiki (but always keep the backup for safety reasons!). I always recommend to upgrade periodically as many bugs get fixed.
