Update DataSnipper

Updating DataSnipper follows the same process as a fresh install. The new installer does not automatically remove the previously installed version.

For users running v25 or older, we require them to uninstall the existing version before installing the latest v26+ version.

The Auto Updater will also not automatically upgrade DataSnipper from v25 to v26. However, once v26 or a later version is installed, the Auto Updater will continue to keep DataSnipper up to date with future releases.

Request your installation link from your Customer Success Manager or from Tally (the chat bubble on the DataSnipper Knowledge Base).
Download and unzip the new setup package (e.g. DataSnipper Installer Vx.x.x.zip).
Run Setup.msi and follow the installation wizard.

Uninstall DataSnipper

Option 1: Via Windows Settings (recommended)

Open Windows Settings (Windows key + I).
Go to Apps > Installed apps (Windows 11) or Apps > Apps & Features (Windows 10).
Search for DataSnipper.
Click the three-dot menu next to DataSnipper and select Uninstall.
Follow the prompts to complete removal.

Option 2: Via the installer package

If DataSnipper does not appear in Windows Settings:

Download the setup package from your installation link.
Unzip and run Setup.msi.
The wizard will show Remove or Repair options if the same or newer version is already installed.
If those options do not appear, complete the install wizard, then run Setup.msi again , the uninstall option will be available on the second run.

If you are unable to uninstall or repair DataSnipper after following these steps, contact your IT team.
