Since you have not told us the model iPhone you want to update, I can only guess. You have chosen the link about iOS 12.5.7 which leads me to believe that you have an older phone. Many older phones cannot update to the latest version because they lack components needed to run newer software. If you will tell us the model, we will be able to give you a better answer.
