Are you referring to Lightroom-Desktop (Cloud based) or Lightroom (old standalone)? (This is the Cloud based Lightroom Forum)

 

For the old legacy 'Lightroom' You cannot "upgrade" v5.7 . Adobe no longer have the download, neither do they offer support for old apps.

You can install v5.7.1  if you have the installer {  .exe } file.

The file download may still be available at-

https://prodesigntools.com/trials/pub/adobe/legacy/lightroom/win/5.x/Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_7_1.exe

To install, You will need your purchased Serial Registration Number for v5, AND the Serial Registration Number for any previous version you owned.

 

Lightroom-Classic v13.4 is the current (latest) upgrade for legacy (standalone) versions (Lr1 > Lr6 ) only available by a subscription to the Photography Plan (20GB).

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .
