Minor Updates
By default, the Autoupdate and install option is enabled for a private agent (Private Agent Version Manager > Update Mode) and the version is updated automatically in case of minor updates ( Y or Z numbers were changed in X.Y.Z version number).
If the Autoupdate and install option is not enabled, run Private Agent Version Manager and update the version manually.
