Software Version

For TT Desktop, the Session Status screen shows your current software version. The screen will also indicate if your version is no longer supported and needs to be updated.

Two version identifiers are given:

1. TT Desktop version number
2. The version name

The version number can also be found on the About... screen. If you are accessing Trade from a browser, only the version name of the software is given, since the latest version is loaded dynamically into the browser on every browser refresh.

The Session Status screen also shows the "Download" button to get TT Desktop.

Note Long sessions in Trade (browser access) should be periodically refreshed to ensure that you are using the latest features.
