2. In the Account menu, select the account or contract you need.
3. Go to ☰ > ENTERPRISE SECURITY > Enterprise Center.

You can also use this feature to downgrade the client by selecting an older version of ​Zero Trust Client​ in Upgrade to Default version. Downgrading to an older version isn't recommended and can lead to unexpected issues. Before deploying any version changes in your production environment, make sure to test them in a staging environment.
