Oracle VB Updates - How often do you recommend students upgrade?

A new version of Oracle VM (5.0.14) was just released on 1/19/16, 4 days after the semester started. Do you have them download and install the new version in the middle of the semester or just remind them to ignore the pop-up when they start the program? It's not a super huge deal to do so on personal computers. The classroom computers may cause an I.T. revolt. It seems with every change in software we bump into more than a few hiccups. Your thoughts? |

I just ignore the updates personally. I might change to the new version after a semester, but never during. Don't want to take any chances that things will get mucked up. |

Lee Hughes Thanks. I think we will probably do this in the future too. |

Lee Hughes I agree 100% with Lee here. Unless there's something that's not working (or if there's a new feature in the update that you MUST have), don't upgrade. –Dan |
