Good morning to everybody,

Today I have tried to update the Node-RED version to release 2.0.4 by running the following command:

```auto
bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/linux-installers/master/deb/update-nodejs-and-nodered)

```

I restart everything, but when I enter node-red the changes remain the same I do not have the improvements of the release, although the version of Node-RED has been raised to 2.0.4:

When I enter `~/.node-red ` settings.js I see that everything remains the same, I don't have the options for the monaco editor etc.

What I can be doing wrong? I most uninstall everything and reinstall Node-RED?

Thank you for your help!

Achraf B.

Hi @achrafb

if the editor shows 2.0.4 then you are running 2.0.4.

Node-RED will never update your settings file for you. You'll need to add the additional settings you want to the file yourself.

If you haven't made any changes to your current settings file, you could rename it to something else and then restart Node-RED. Node-RED will then copy into place the new default settings file.
