I'm currently at 7.6.13. If I pause folding, download and run the 7.6.21 installer file, and then restart, will it pick up where I left off on my current CPU and GPU work units without loss of completed work?

Most of the time that should be good enough for the installer to work and convert the existing installed client to the new version. There have been some failures reported. Most of the time the GPU WU and slot is what does not update properly. Safer is setting current WUs to Finish and then install the update.
