Please allow me quoting from the WP 31S User Manual, p. 131 of 149:

"If you own or operate a Windows-PC, you may download
http://sourceforge.net/p/wp34s/code/HEAD...31sgui.exe
Download the files emulator.dll, wp31s_medium.bmp,
4 Medium 31s.skin of the same build number as well. Then just start the exe file by double clicking."

For the WP 34S, it's the same procedure but the corresponding files are in another branch: http://sourceforge.net/p/wp34s/code/HEAD...34sgui.exe

So, for the usual updates, just download of those four what was changed since the last time you downloaded. Usually, that's only wp3xgui.exe, sometimes also emulator.dll.
