Update and Keeps Savestates

[wanderer189]

Is there any way to update Dolphin and retain or update the save states??

It depends on which versions you've updated between. If there only have been small changes, old savestates will still work. But if you update and Dolphin tells you that your old savestates are incompatible, then no, there's nothing you can do to make those savestates work on the new version. If you want to keep your progress, you need to use regular saves, not savestates.
