Hmm, I thought someone answered this question already, but I can't find the answer in the list archives.

0.3.4.8 is still a supported version. You don't need to update.

One simple way to keep Tor up to date on Windows is to use the Chocolatey package manager to install the tor package:
https://chocolatey.org/packages/tor

It has Tor 0.3.3.9, which is still a recommended version.

You can script chocolately using the "choco" command.

Otherwise, you can script powershell to download and install packages.

I can't help you with the details, because I don't do a lot of work on Windows. But maybe someone else on the list can.

If you work out how to do it, please write back to the list with the scripts you used.
