In 2016, users of the largest Russian social network had the opportunity to update their VK on a computer to a new version. To do this, you need to click on a special link available through the user's personal profile.
Instructions
Step 1
Before updating VK on a computer to a new version, available since the spring of 2016, log in to the social network using your username and password from the main page of the site. Scroll down your main profile page and notice the "Use new version of site as default" link on the left. It should be located below the "My Settings" item and separated from the menu by a line. The text on the link is light gray, so sometimes it is difficult to see it the first time.
Step 2
Click on the link to update VK on your computer. Immediately after clicking, the page will reload and will already have a new design. Please note that this link periodically disappears, and at the same time the design returns to its original form. This may be due to the fact that the VKontakte administration from time to time fixes the shortcomings of the new version, therefore it removes the possibility of updating. Wait a while and try again.
Step 3
Some users complain that, despite all the attempts being made, they still cannot find the coveted link to update VK. In this case, you should try to log into your page from another computer. The fact is that sometimes various viruses and small malicious programs limit the functionality of VKontakte and other sites. Also, the opportunity for updating may not be available on some versions of a particular browser, so you should try to try again, having previously changed the program through which you usually open sites on the Internet.
