Installing the latest DNVM

I currently have DNVM v1.0.0-beta4-10356 installed but there is no dnvm update-self command available in this version.

How do I install the latest available DNVM?

I have tried this command as the ASP.NET 5 GitHub page:

&{$Branch='dev';iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aspnet/Home/dev/dnvminstall.ps1'))}

It performs the following:

Using temporary directory: C:\Users\Dave\AppData\Local\Temp\dnvminstall
Downloading DNVM.ps1 to C:\Users\Dave\AppData\Local\Temp\dnvminstall\dnvm.ps1
Downloading DNVM.cmd to C:\Users\Dave\AppData\Local\Temp\dnvminstall\dnvm.cmd
Installing DNVM
Installing .NET Version Manager to C:\Users\Dave\.dnx\bin
Installing 'dnvm.ps1' to 'C:\Users\Dave\.dnx\bin' ...
  Skipping: file already exists
Installing 'dnvm.cmd' to 'C:\Users\Dave\.dnx\bin' ...
  Skipping: file already exists
Adding C:\Users\Dave\.dnx\bin to Process PATH
Adding C:\Users\Dave\.dnx\bin to User PATH
Adding C:\Users\Dave\.dnx to Process DNX_HOME
Adding C:\Users\Dave\.dnx to User DNX_HOME

But upon running dnvm help, I see that I remain on the same version.

I just deleted the entire .dnx folder from C:\Users\{{user}} and reran the installation command. It obviously wasn't able to "overwrite".

beta6 just came out and there are tooling updates that will install the new version of dnvm

using that will be the easiest solution I think
