How do I update the Play Market?

The question of how to update the Play Market on Android, most people are not. But if you still had to ask him, let's deal with this.

When might you need to update the Play Market?

Such a need may arise from errors or problematic software. For example, from the left site the user downloaded a program to the device that had a virus. Or it was just crookedly formed and, due to constructive problems, could damage the register or something important. By default, the Play Market is updated automatically.

Now let's see what and how to do, if this does not happen. You can update the Play Market using several methods. We will consider them all. For convenience, they are divided into categories, depending on the complexity of the run for the average user.

First category

First, try to simply reboot your device. During its operation desynchronization or minor technical problems could occur, which affect the operability of the device. And to get rid of them, you need to delete the temporary files. Rebooting allows to solve this problem quickly and qualitatively.

In truth, most of the problems that will arise can be solved in this way. If this recipe does not help, then we need to reset the Play Market settings. You can do this in Settings. To do this, you need to find the Play Market by means of the application manager and select "Clear cache" and "Clear data". If this did not work, then click on the "Delete Updates" button. All settings that have been downloaded from other services will be immediately erased. Then you can click on the "Update Play Market" button or run the application itself, after which it will be done automatically.

After that, you need to check the availability of the Internet. To do this, you can try to go online through a browser. If this does not help, then you need to move on to a slightly more complex version.

Second category

Find an application such as Google Play Services. In it, you need to delete the data and clear the cache. You can find the program in the same place in the settings via the Application Manager. This is how you can update the Play Market.

If there is no result, try the same thing with the Google Services Framework. However, to find this program is not so easy. When you are in the Application Manager, you must go to the "All" tab and manually find it. Also, look here for the Google Accounts application. If it is disabled, then it's no wonder that the full functionality of the device is not available. Therefore it will be necessary to include "Google Accounts". We continue to operate in the "All" tab. Now you need to open the "Download Manager" and make sure that it is enabled. Just in case, you can delete your account and restore it. If this did not help, then it is necessary to complicate the approach and carefully understand the basics.

Now we will only have a general description. We will direct to the possible way of finding solutions that will bring the result. The overwhelming majority of readers to this paragraph already had to solve the problem. But if not, then we continue to understand.

The cause of malfunctions may be some kind of application. This is rare, but it occurs. You must manually disable or delete all recently downloaded and updated programs. It can also be that some application has made changes to the hosts file, which is why the device works incorrectly. In this case, you need to get root-rights and edit it yourself. Before this, it is advisable to read the help information to know what this file represents and how not to harm yourself even more. The most radical way is to resort to Hard Reset (reset settings) from the internal drive.
