How to update n8n on cpanel to latest version successfully

Describe the problem/error/question

I want to update n8n on a shared hosting environment with cPanel (using Apache + NGINX) to the latest version. I’m not sure about the correct update process and whether I need to reinstall or just upgrade via npm.

What is the error message (if any)?

No specific error yet, but I’d like to avoid breaking my current installation.
