# self-update

**Syntax:** `outfitting-manager self-update`

| macOS | Replaces the executable and restores its executable bit. |
| Linux | Replaces the executable and restores its executable bit; release assets target x64 and arm64. |
| Windows | Writes a temporary executable and replaces the running executable after the process exits. |
