I am using TeXstudio 2.3 the last two years. Now new versions are available. I want to update the old version. Is it possible to update without uninstalling the previous version? Is there any way to get updates automatically like windows update? Any one can guide me regarding the two versions 2.3 and 2.6 which will be better?

First ensure that xindy works with your distribution.
Even though an entry exists for Make Glossaries in the build window (see figure below), it doesn't appear under the Commands of Tools menu:
There is no short cut available too. If somebody knows how to make use of this please feel free to edit the answer.
Alternative
You can define a user command:
Go To Options → Configure TeXstudio. In the window that opens do the following:
Choose
Buildand click.Click
Addunder User CommandsFill :
user1: Make Glossariesand"C:/Program Files/MiKTeX 2.9/miktex/bin/makeglossaries.exe" %. You can browse to the exe file also. Note that the path may be different for you. Don't forget the%at the end.Press
OKand come out
Now you will have a user menu for Make Glossaries with a short cut:
Now you can pdflatex Make Glossaries and pdflatex.
Happy Glossing :)
Additional note:
As noted by Speravir, you have to specify "texindy.bat" %.idx instead of texindy.exe %.idx as in the following window.
Edit:
There were some errors in your code. Try this:
\documentclass[10pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{graphicx}

I'd recommend you to use the internal PDF viewer because it allows more accurate synchronization between PDF and source. Also, it does not have the closing issue. Check that you have the following settings
If you have a good reason to stay with Adobe Acrobat, here is a description how to setup DDE to automatically close the PDF before compilation: https://sourceforge.net/p/texstudio/feature-requests/650/
Best Answer
You can simply install a new version on top of an old.
It's not recommended to install two different versions in parallel, because they will share settings. While we guarantee, that older settings can be read by newer versions, we do not test for the reverse. If you really need two separate versions, go for the USB ones. They store the settings in the folder next to the executable.
We have an update checker in TXS for a while now. It will notify you about new releases. However, there is no such thing like an automatic installation.
