So in effect this means I cannot update ABP without first uninstalling the extension, downloading the latest version and then installing it. Unfortunately, this has one major drawback and that is the ad counter is reset. I was originally up to 300,000 ads and blockers tracked, but due to this update problem for the existing version of ABP, this again reset my ad counter. This means currently I cannot update again as this will also occur again.
I admit I am no expert at writing software, however I am a beta tester for the largest company’s in the world, which makes me wonder why this issue is so hard to resolve – it seems quite simple to fix. I do know Mac OS X 10.10 did have the Update button at the bottom left corner of the Extensions dialog box, but it has not been there since.
I have uploaded two screenshots here
