# Reinstall the MotherDuck extension
> Force reinstall the MotherDuck extension when experiencing connection or compatibility issues.
The MotherDuck extension is automatically loaded and downloaded when you connect to MotherDuck. However, you can force a reinstallation by following these steps:

```sql
FORCE INSTALL motherduck;
```

Next to that make sure you are running the current supported [version of DuckDB](../faq#how-do-i-know-which-version-of-duckdb-i-should-be-running-).
