Updating GCA5 to the Newest Version
GCA can update a lot of the files it uses through the Package Manager in the Check for Updates system. It can even tell you that a new update for itself is available. Unfortunately, GCA can not update its primary program files through this system. To update GCA itself, you have to reinstall it from the setup program available on Warehouse23--the same way you originally installed GCA.
Here's how you do that. New Way - Using the new Warehouse 23 on Shopify
Old Way - Using the old Warehouse 23 For the time being, if you originally purchased GCA from the OLD store, you may get the current version of the installer from the OLD store.
Tip for the old store: Remember that the old store login is a username, not an email address. (Hopefully you still have your password for the old store as well.) Once You've Downloaded the ZIP File Extract the EXE and run it. You'll probably have to tell Windows that yes, you really want to run it, same as you did when you first installed it. Do the Setup thing. It should be a truncated install, because you already have a copy. After that, you should be updated to the newest release version. I hope this helps to keep your GCA up to date!

Re: Updating GCA5 to the Newest Version
With the old store now archived and no longer being updated, you must update GCA through the new store.
If your account on the new store seems to be missing GCA, but you definitely had it on the old store, please contact SJGames at help@sjgames.com and get that fixed! You need to be able to update GCA!

Re: Updating GCA5 to the Newest Version
Since we're still working out some issues, I've also updated GURPS Character Assistant on the archived store. Check out this thread for more details.
