    P, There’s no need to worry about data loss or problem when updating the plugin given that you don’t have the **Remove Plugin Data on Deletion?** option checked on the Settings page, Reset tab.

    ## Update Plugin Using FTP

    * Deactivate the current plugin
    * Download and unzip files locally
    * Upload the directory to your website’s /wp-content/plugins/ directory
    * Be sure to overwrite your existing folder contents
    * Activate the plugin

    ## Update Plugin Using WordPress

    * Uncheck “Remove Plugin Data on Deletion?” on the Settings’ Reset tab and Save
    * Deactivate the current plugin
    * Delete the current plugin – Ignore the WordPress data deletion warning, it’s always there for plugins with uninstall methods.
    * Upload plugin via WordPress Admin > Plugins > Add New, Upload tab interface
    * Activate the plugin

    Just curious if you don’t mind please, why not update it through the “update” option in the plugin area? Why actually delete the plugin? Thanks!!!
