Finally, reload the plugin’s main admin page, the “Installed Version” should now match the “Latest Available Version”
The best way to update the plugin is from cPanel so that there are no chances for loosing any settings and Data associated with the plugin.
First, you need to download the latest plugin and save in some folder in your system.
