# 🛠️ Gemini CLI: Manual Update Guide
If the automatic update fails or you need to force a specific version of the Gemini CLI, use these steps.
## 🔴 Symptom: Automatic Update Failed
You may see an error message like:
`✕ Automatic update failed. Please try updating manually`
## 🟢 Manual Update Procedure
### 1. Verify Current Version
Check the version currently installed on your system:
```bash
gemini --version
```
### 2. Check Latest Version
Query the npm registry for the latest available version:
```bash
npm show @google/gemini-cli version
```
### 3. Perform Manual Update
Use `npm` with `sudo` to update the global package:
```bash
sudo npm install -g @google/gemini-cli@latest
```
### 4. Confirm Update
Verify that the new version is active:
```bash
gemini --version
```
## 🛠️ Troubleshooting Update Failures
### Permissions Issues
If you encounter `EACCES` errors without `sudo`, ensure your user has permissions or use `sudo` as shown above.
### Registry Connectivity
If `npm` cannot reach the registry, check your internet connection or any local firewall/proxy settings.
### Cache Issues
If the version doesn't update, try clearing the npm cache:
```bash
npm cache clean --force
```
