Hi,

Sorry about the stupid question! My newly installed compiler is version 10.1.011. How do I update it to the latest version?

Thanks,

First, obtain the latest Intel Visual Fortran update (10.1.025) from the Intel Registration and Download Center here.

It is my understanding user Intel Account Credentials are now synced between the Intel Forums, Intel Premier Support and the Intel Registration Center, so you should be able to login using the Account credentials you used for this forum. Ifyou credentials are not the same between this Forum and those you created at the Intel Registration center when first registering yourserial number, then use those that you created with registering.

Once logged into the Registration Center, on the Welcome landing page, click on the version number appearing in the Downloads column for the Intel Visual Fortran Compiler for Windows. This should be version: 10.1 (025). Click on the appropriate download file when the next screen appears to initiat the file download.

As for installation, there are details provided in the Installation Guide provided with the 10.1.021 compiler accessible via the Documentation short-cut in the Intel Visual Fortran compiler program group. (Start > All Programs > Intel Software Development Tools > Intel Fortran Compiler 10.1.021 > Documentation Index)

You may choose to keep the 10.1.021 compiler installed and only uninstall the Intel Visual Fortran integrations with Microsoft Visual Studio and then proceed with the installation of the IVF 10.1.025 update. This will install the 10.1.025 compiler and updated Intel Visual Fortran integrations with Microsoft Visual Studio and permit you to choose either the 10.1.021 or 10.1.025 if you wish. You can also ceratinly uninstall all components from the 10.1.021 and just install the 10.1.025 update.

Hope that helps.
