If you want to update the file created with iSpring Suite, just select the course you need to replace from the content list in the Publish window directly in iSpring Suite and click Publish.
If you want to update a SCORM package, video, pdf, Word, or Excel file, then click Edit next to the course that needs to be replaced in iSpring Learn and select Replace.
