What do you mean the core is encrypted? Do you mean the wallet is encrypted? If so, no...
Hello i have bitcoin core 0.9.2.0 on my pc, and i want too update too 0.10.2 because of the recent news about the fork problem.
1- can i update straight too version 0.10.2?
2- how do i do that? just instal the recent core version (0.10.2)?
3- i have to copy firts the wallet.file in to a pen from my current version if anything bad happens?
4- after i instal the 0.10.2 i dont have to do anything else?
Thank you

2 - yes, just install the new one
3 - you don't "have" to... but it's far better to be safe than sorry. Copy your existing wallet.dat to some location before you start any upgrade process. This way, if something blows up in the process your wallet and coins are safe
4 - typically no. If everything went smoothly (which it usually does) then you're good to go. If there were problems, you've copied your wallet.dat file to some other location, so your coins are safe and sound.

Bitcoin Core don't have automatic update as far as I know, so simply download the latest version of Bitcoin Core and take a backup of wallet.dat from old one . then once you install the new one , you import the .dat and you should be fine .
