Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to acquire first update data used to update a program and including first version information of the program, from another apparatus connected via a network. The program causes the information processing apparatus to execute a process. The processor is further configured to acquire second version information of second update data from the other apparatus in response to an instruction to stop the operation of the information processing apparatus. The second version information is a latest version of the program available from the other apparatus. The processor is further configured to update the program based on the first update data in a case where the first version information matches the second version information.
