# UpdateProject

> Replace an ABBYY FlexiCapture project with a new version in the deployment environment using the UpdateProject command in FCAdminTools, including data sets.

In an enterprise setting, changes made to a project are first implemented in a test environment. Once tested, they need to be transferred to the deployment environments. You can use the `UpdateProject` command to replace an existing project with its new version in the deployment environment.

1. FCAdminTools will rename the processing stages in projects whose language differs from the language of FCAdminTools. You can prevent this by specifying the appropriate language in the Windows registry. For more information, see [this section](/flexi-capture/admin-guide/projects-administration).
2. Using the `UpdateProject` command will update your entire project, including its Document Definitions and import profiles. To only update the Document Definitions, use the [CopyDocumentDefinition](/flexi-capture/admin-guide/copy-document-definition) command.
