If you are 'dirty' flashing, it is a good idea to backup your user-installed apps and data in case the 'dirty' flash fails.
### Ugrade to a higher Android / LineageOS version
Upgrading from one version of LineageOS to a higher version (e.g. LineageOS 20.0, based on Android 13, to LineageOS 21.0 , based on Android 14) cannot be done by the Updater app. The new version will hav eto be installed manually.

If you want to do that, you will have to format your data partition and perform a clean installation. If you need to go down that path, then checkout the backup options descibed in the previous section.
## Troubleshooting and support
The LineageOS for MicroG project is not in a position to offer much by way of technical support:
