No update available from ACY 5.10.5 to Acy 6.x on Wordpress

I have Acymailing 5.10.5 installed and I want it to update to the latest version. But I do not see the update available in the plugins. When I try to install it, I get the message that the target folder already exists.
How can I run an update? I use WP 5.2.2 with the Dutch language active.

Hi,

AcyMailing 5 and AcyMailing 6 are not the same components, this is why they're no button update.
For the moment AcyMailing 6 is still under development, it has a lot of features but as much as AcyMailing 5.

I recommend you to install AcyMailing 6 on a test environment to see if version 6 fulfill your needs.
If so the procedure to update:

Connect to your FTP and delete the folder acymailing in /wp-content/plugins/
Install in front end the last package of AcyMailing 6
Go in AcyMailing and run the migration script to have all of your data

ah, ok. That explains. Thanks for the information. I will do a testinstall on a subdomain.
