# Updating
#### Bit 2024.2 to Bit 2025.1
**Things to remember**
* Make sure ALL plugins are updated to Bit 2025.1
* Bit 2025.1 has changed quite a LOT compared to Bit 2024.2
* Delete every single file and folder from Bit excluding the plugins folder (though remove the bit-core plugin). It's HIGHLY recommended to remake your config for this release.
**Updating config.json**
Bit 2025.1 splits up the config file. Please redownload Bits MAIN config file, and update the settings there. This should be located in the Bit folder NOT the config/bit-core folder (which is used for bits update system and can break the bot if touched)
**Update ALL plugins to their latest versions**
All plugins must be updated for use in Bit 2025.1
**Update your node modules and deploy commands**
Open the bot in the terminal of your choice and run the `npm i` command.
Once that is done run `node deploy.js` to deploy the bots commands.
**And you're done**
Aside from plugin-specific updates, you should now be fine to run Bit. Simply use the `node bit.js` command and you're all set!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://bit.lockyzdev.com/docs/2025.1/updating.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
