This release includes internal boot support, related licensing and onboarding improvements, storage and ZFS enhancements, and a broad set of bug fixes and usability improvements.

Upgrading

For step-by-step instructions, see Upgrading Unraid. Questions about your license?

Known issues

For other known issues, see the 7.2.4 release notes.

Rolling back

Once you enable internal boot or switch to TPM-based licensing, you cannot roll back to an earlier release.

If you upgrade ZFS pool features, earlier Unraid releases may not be able to import those pools.

If rolling back earlier than 7.2.4, also see the 7.2.4 release notes.

Changes vs. 7.2.4

Onboarding and internal boot

New users automatically start in the onboarding wizard, where they choose language, time zone, theme, and activation code settings before selecting a boot option, including internal boot.

Existing users can go to Settings → Onboarding Wizard to review settings and migrate to internal boot.

For details, see Onboarding.

Licensing

All new and replacement keys use TPM-based licensing when possible because it is more reliable than flash-based licensing.

To proactively switch to TPM-based licensing, see How can I move from flash-based licensing to TPM-based licensing.
