It's because it's designed to allow you to upgrade add ons directly and only from the XenForo site. Specifically with the ability to provide your XenForo community log in details.

Hi Chris,
While I was trying to update by using Option 1 for XenReviews, I am keep getting this error:
Later I was suggested to "delete everything under install/addons" but it didn't help neither. Even though I have deleted everything under intalls/addons, when I click to update a new folder appears under the same spot. Any idea what might be causing the error?
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
In regards to @puropedia's report, and several other users that have tried to use your installer to install my add-on, I finally dove into your code to find the issue. Wanted to post this here so you can get it included in the next release.
OPEN library/AddOnInstaller/Model/AddOn.php
FIND
REPLACE WITH
Cheers,
Jeff

if i update or install a plugin the .rar and the install.xml are all time in the root folder
Technically, you shouldn't have anything in install/addon because it is supposed to clean up the files after install (but sometimes that might fail).
Anything in install/addon can be removed.
It's possible that one of your add-ons includes a rar and an XML file in the root of the ZIP package. It's preferable that add-on developers put everything they intend to be uploaded into a folder called "upload". The logic my add-on goes through then finds that the easiest way of identifying what should be "uploaded" and what shouldn't.
In the event my add-on can't find an "upload" folder in the ZIP file, it will go through a process to "guess" the correct files to upload.
Alternatively, the add-on developer has decided to put a rar and an XML file in the upload folder in which case that will just get uploaded into root.
If you can identify which add-on it is I can explain in more detail why it's happening, but there's probably not a lot I can do about it.
