Upgrading between Fedora releases without the xref:dnf-system-upgrade.adoc[DNF System Upgrade Plugin] or Gnome Software are not tested by the Fedora QA team, and are therefore not supported by the community.

== Can I update from a pre-release (Alpha, Beta, or other development snapshot) to the final release?
If you are using a pre-release of Fedora, and want to know more about upgrading to the final release, refer to the
link:++https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_from_pre-release_to_final++[Upgrading from pre-release to final] page.
This is technically not an 'upgrade' operation, but an update.
There are some special considerations involved in making sure you stay on the update track you intend to use, which are documented on that page.

== Upgrading from pre-release (beta) to final public release (stable)
If you are using a pre-release of Fedora, you shouldn't need to do anything to get the final public release, other than updating packages as they become available. You can use `sudo dnf update` or wait for desktop notification. When the pre-release is released as final, the `fedora-release*` packages will be updated and your `fedora-updates-testing` repository will be disabled.
If dnf is complaining about mismatched package versions even though your updates-testing repo is disabled, it is recommended to run `sudo dnf distro-sync` in order to align package versions with the current release.
