## Highlights

0.2.8 is a small but important update designed to enhance awareness around potential pitfalls of using certain services. It introduces warnings for installing, uninstalling, backing up, and restoring backups of stateful services such as LND or c-lightning. Additionally, it draws a distinction between services that are designed to be launched inside the browser and those that are designed to run in the background

0.2.8 also introduces automatic checks for OS updates. With this enabled, each time you visit your embassy you will be notified if a new OS version is available. This setting can be edited in your Embassy Config page. Auto Check for Updates

##### Important

If you have LND or c-lightning installed, please update them to the latest versions. An oversight in Start9’s USB backups system has created a situation where restoring a LND or c-lightning backup could potentially result in permanent loss of channel funds. To be clear, DO NOT attempt to restore a LND or c-lightning backup until you have updated to the latest versions.
