Head on over to the [list of releases][atom releases] and see if there's a more recent release. You can update to the most recent release by downloading Atom from the releases page, or with the in-app auto-updater. The in-app auto-updater checks for and downloads a new version after you restart Atom, or if you use the Atom > Check for Update menu option.
## Check for linked packages
If you develop or contribute to Atom packages, there may be left-over packages linked to your `~/.atom/packages` or `~/.atom/dev/packages` directories. You can use:
```shell
$ apm links
```
to list all linked development packages. You can remove the links using the `apm unlink` command. See `apm unlink --help` for details.
## Check Atom and package settings
In some cases, unexpected behavior might be caused by misconfigured or unconfigured settings in Atom or in one of the packages.
