The install is manual and overwrites any previously installed version of the Desktop Connector.
A computer Restart is suggested to complete the install.

Autodesk Customer Support only supports the current version of the Connector.

Left unsaid - this Desktop Connector Update probably fully supports the upcoming Autodesk 2022 Release products.
