to answer my own question...

I renamed the solidres-complextariff folder and I was able to install the updated plugin.

Hi,

In WordPress, to upgrade existing plugins manually (uploading zip fle) please rename it first before uploading the zip file. WordPress does not require this for upgrading via their plugin directory.

In Joomla, it does not require that for both upgrading via JED and via manual method.
