My first update!

[carbar]

Hi everyone,

I want to upgrade VM from 2.0.16 to version 2.0.18a for a test on my local computer. Live Update fails with the message

Downloading the update package failed. Make sure that your temp-directory is writable or that you have enabled Joomla!'s FTP options in your site's Global Configuration.

Are there any other options for upgrading?  (because I do not feel secure with enabling FTP)

Thanks

Use Joomla's extensions installer.
