Answers.Text: Just to clarify, while Craft CMS itself has a one-click update system, applying core Craft updates automatically, plugins require a few extra manual steps to update. As J. Baptiste mentions above, an improved approach is coming with Craft 3, due to launch later this year.

Answers.Text: Also - you should really empty the old plugin folder first, otherwise you might have no longer files left hanging around, which can cause issues.  So delete old plugin files, upload news ones into same folder, load an admin page.
