I tried to update Julia using Juliaup, but I haven’t been successful. First, I updated Juliaup using `juliaup self update`, and after that, I tried to update julia to 1.8.2 using `juliaup update`, but it stuck in that phase:

```julia
Installing Julia 1.8.2+0.x64 (x64).

```

Where is the problem?

Hi,  
You’re right. It seems that the problem is with the internet connection since I’m in Iran and here we don’t have stable internet.

I’ll keep this question updated. I have a chance in the middle of the night.

**Update 10/2/2022**  
The problem was because of internet censorship by Iran. I updated to the latest version using a VPN.

It’s a way to install and manage Julia itself:

Juliaup is a new Julia version manager for Windows that is distributed via the Windows Store and manages your Julia installation on Windows.
