Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm trying to install the Views 3 beta, but when I select the beta update channel, nothing happens. It's a multisite installation, using WooCommerce and WPML, the WooCommerce Storefront theme (and Boutique child theme thereof), and I want to build this prototype site using Blocks.

Hi, are you able to download the beta plugin from https://toolset.com/account/downloads ? I wasn't sure from your message if you are having trouble on toolset.com or in your site's wp-admin area. Probably the fastest solution is to download the beta plugin from the Toolset site https://toolset.com/account/downloads. There is a channel changer where you can choose the beta channel.

Then deactivate and delete the old Views plugin from your site's wp-admin area. Finally, install the new version of Views in wp-admin > Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin. Use the beta zip you downloaded from the Toolset site. Let me know if the beta plugin begins working as expected. I'll try to set up a similar environment and see if I can reproduce the automatic update failure.
