Thanks for your response. The MediaMonkey documentation is not very clear, but I do not see where it says to copy the MediaMonkey4 database (MM.db) into the MediaMonkey5 Portable folder and rename it to MM5.db. (It might work. I just can't find anything that says to do that.) The page you linked to provides information about where files are located, but I cannot find anything about upgrading from MediaMonkey4.
All I can find is this, which is not very specific:
MediaMonkey will offer to update the MediaMonkey 4 database from any MediaMonkey 4 regular installs found on your PC (for MediaMonkey 4 Portable Installs only if there is a shortcut to the MediaMonkey.exe from the MediaMonkey 4 install).

I'm not sure which action solved it, but I deleted all files in the
Portable folder (except
MM.db which I copied from MediaMonkey4's
Portable folder). I ran MediaMonkey5, and it created files in the
Roaming folder (probably because I deleted
MediaMonkey.ini which it uses to detect a portable installation--not the
Portable folder). Exit MediaMonkey5. Delete
Roaming\MediaMonkey5 folder. Re-install MM5 (as portable). Run MM5. Now it upgrades the
MM.db (which I had copied into MM5's
Portable folder).
