How to update my Julia from version 1.6 to 1.7 from the Jupyter notebook? Do I need to uninstall 1.6 and go to Julia website and download 1.7 or is it possible from the Jupyter notebook environment? Also, Do I need to update all my packages after installing Julia? I am using a windows 10 machine. Also whether it would be possible to update to Julia 1.7 using my old Julia 1.6.4 REPL. If yes then kindly show me the commands needed to update to a newer version
