Evidently you have it installed twice. Once under plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension (correct) and a second time under plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension-master (incorrect)

When you install this via the zip file in Wordpress, as you recommend elsewhere, it installs to the plugins/contact-form-7-to-database-extension-master folder. Why not allow it to be updated like other Wordpress plugins, anyway? I don't see any explanation for that anywhere.

Also, when I rename that folder, I get a warning when activating: "The plugin generated 729 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin."

Lastly, is this plugin compatible with PHP 7?

Thank you.

The problem is that "contact-form-7-to-database-extension-master" is not the intended directory. You probably took a zip off the master branch from git hub (hence "-master" added) instead of a release zip from https://github.com/mdsimpson/contact-form-7-to-database-extension/releases.

If you install GitHub updater, then you can update it just like any other plugin. https://github.com/afragen/github-updater

Okay, thanks!
