create a copy [backup clone] of folder (optional security)
*C\Program Files (x86)\KADOKAWA\RPGMV\nwjs-win-test


this clone copy will allow you to backup nwjs to the previous version, if you have problems.
No need backup your game don't worry.
Then replace all the SDK contents files you have downloaded in the original rmmv nwjs-win-test folder.

Rename the executable file nw.exe => by game.exe
You are up to date now and can take advantage of performance and the latest tools offered by nwjs and chromium.

EDIT: FOR MAC USER. thanks to @elpeleq42
On mac it's a bit harder, because in it, the files and folders are within the game.app folder(if i'm not mistaken thats the name when you export your game for MacOS). You would need to export for web browsers, download NW.js last version for macOS, find a way to open the nw.app as folder within macOS, then follow those steps to distribute your game:
