    The list in the License Update dialog does not indicate the specific update changes that are available (e.g., incremented version from 11.0 to 12.0 will still be displayed as 11.0).

  2. Click [Update].
    The dialog closes and you can see the progress of the update in the status bar.
    You successfully finished the online update. Check the overview.
