Cypress 7.x Upgrade Instructions - projectcypress/cypress GitHub Wiki
Install Clean Version of Cypress v7.2.2
Follow the Cypress V7 Install Instructions if you do not already have a running version of Cypress v7.x.x.
Note: VMs for Cypress v7.0.6 and older were built on Ubuntu 18.04 which has since entered End of Life. It is strongly encouraged to install a fresh installation for Cypress v7.1.0 instead of following the upgrade path.
Upgrade Existing Version of Cypress V7.x.x to V7.2.2
Connect to your machine running cypress and run the following command:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectcypress/cypress/master/contrib/upgrade_cypress_70.sh | sudo bash -s -- -m
Note: If the upgrade appears to stall, the script may be issuing a prompt to enter your password.
Note: You may also need to run the following command if apt-get cannot find the latest version of cypress
sudo apt update
