Key notes
Many users have reported that Silhouette Studio won’t update. This is an extremely frustrating issue in case you need to use some newly developed features for your projects and can’t get access to them.
For these reasons in this article, we will explore the best way to troubleshoot the issue caused by Silhouette not updating.
Please make sure to follow the steps in the order that they were written to avoid any unnecessary problems.
How can I fix the Silhouette update problems?
1. Update Windows 10
2. Scan and repair system files using SFC
3. Use an alternative third-party tool
Despite seeming like such a niche software, Silhouette Studio is not the only program out there specialized in silhouette designs.
Other premium products such asAdobe Illustratorare equally capable of handling such a job, and arguably better too.
Illustrator is not just your typical vector-based image editor, as it holds the tools that allow it to be anything, from a graphics designer to a digital artwork tool, all within the same interface.
In Adobe Illustrator, there are various methods for creating silhouettes. Image Trace and the Pen Tool are two tools that are frequently used for this purpose. The pen tool is ideal for drawing basic silhouette shapes, whereas Image Trace is ideal for creating silhouettes from complicated images.
Because there are so many complex details, it would take you long to produce a silhouette of a building if you use the pen tool to outline it. However, utilizing Image Trace, you may do the task in less than a minute.
More so, the files can be easily exported and imported to and from other Adobe products, such as Premiere Pro or Adobe Photoshop.
4. Reset and fix Windows Update components
5. Clean boot your Windows 10 PC
In this article, we explored some of the best ways to troubleshoot Silhouette Studio not being able to update to the latest version. Please make sure to follow these steps carefully in order to avoid any other issues.
