# Upgrading Veeam MP for Hyper-V

To upgrade Veeam MP for Hyper-V to version 13, you need to import new management packs and to upgrade VE Service and web UI:

1. Log in to the Management Server using an account with local Administrator rights.
2. Mount the installation image. The setup will open the splash screen with Veeam Management Pack installation options. 
3. On the splash screen, click **Upgrade**.
4. Complete the **Veeam Management Pack Setup** wizard.
   1. At the **License Agreement** step, read and accept the license agreement. If you reject the agreement, you will not be able to continue installation.

   2. At the **Upgrade** step, review the Veeam MP for Hyper-V components installed on the server.

      ::: note

      If you are upgrading Veeam MP for Hyper-V components separately, you must first import new Veeam management packs, and then upgrade the VE Service and web UI. For more information, see [Installing Veeam MP for Hyper-V](imports_mps.md).

      :::

   3. At the **License** step, browse to a local folder on your workstation to locate the license file provided to you by Veeam. To do that, click **Browse to local license file**.
   
      Note that you will not be able to continue installation without providing a license.

   4. At the **Service Account** step, enter credentials of an account under which the Veeam Virtualization Extensions Service will run. The account must be a member of the local *Administrators* group. The user name must be specified in the *DOMAIN\USERNAME* format.
   
      For more information on accounts and privileges, see [Required Permissions](required_permissions.md).

      ::: note

      After you click **Next**, the setup wizard will run the system configuration check and will automatically install the missing ASP.NET Core Runtime and .NET runtime components (if any).

      :::
   5. At the **Ready to Upgrade** step, click **Upgrade** to begin upgrade.
