Go to Settings->agent versions and make sure you choose the latest version from the drop down list for the relevant agent types

2b. For Nodejs agent -
Update your package.json file to use the latest slnodejs version as configured in the Settings page OR
if you run via NPM install use the latest version, like - npm install slnodejs@xx.xx.xx
2c. For .NET agents -
If you are using VSTS/ADO your agents will update according to the version in the Agent Versions Settings page in the drop down list (see #1)
Otherwise, you will need to manually install the latest version
Pls follow Downloading the .NET agent files
Note: If you download the agents/plugin from an internal repo, you must make sure the updated version does exist there before changing the version number
