Updating Colourlab Ai 4
Updates are distributed automatically. When you launch Colourlab Ai 4, you'll be notified in-app whenever a new build is available — download and install at your convenience.
Two other places to keep an eye on:
- Beta builds page: 4.colourlab.ai/betabuilds (opens in a new tab) lists every available build.
- Email: we notify your registered inbox when a new build is published.
Versioning
Beta builds follow the format 4.0.B<N> — for example, 4.0.B7. The B stands for beta, and the trailing number increments with each new build. The versioning scheme will change once Colourlab Ai 4 ships publicly; we'll update this section when it does.
What's preserved across updates
Your projects, references, and preferences are preserved on every update. Installing a new build never deletes your existing data — you pick up exactly where you left off.
Rolling back to a previous build
Most builds are reversible. If you need to drop back to an earlier release, download the installer for that build from 4.colourlab.ai/betabuilds (opens in a new tab) and install it over the current one — your projects, references, and preferences remain intact.
The exception is database updates. When a build introduces changes to the application database schema, the upgrade is one-way: once installed, you can't simply drop back to a pre-update build. Downgrading from a database-update build would require reinstalling the database from scratch, which means losing the projects and references on that machine.
Want belt-and-braces protection before any update? Export your active projects to standalone files first — see the User Guide for the export flow. With your projects exported, you can always reinstall and re-import them on whatever build you choose.
