Hello

When I try to update simple press to 556 from 555, WP returns me a “can’t remove old plugin, unable to finish update”.

I have the same error for simple press plugins and themes

What’s wrong?

Not sure to be honest. That’s WordPress informing you – not SP.

The only reason that comes to mind is if the folder or file permissions do not allow it to be carried out automatically.

I would probably take a look at the WP support forum to see if there are any pointers goven as to why this might happen. Or – you can, of course, always update manually – https://simple-press.com/documentation/codex/installation/upgrading/upgrading-version-5/ – which would get you back on the road.
