What issue do you have?
Since the new upgrade prompt in app, rather than the traditional download and upgrade, for me, this simply does not work. It fails to install every single time. I did find the article where it said about removing the prior install key from the registry. If you do this, it will work. But, on the next upgrade, it will fail again. Edit the registry and it works, then next time, it fails again. I think I am on version/fail 3, now, so, even though I saw somthing in the last release notes about detecting when it was in use (I think this only applied to the first release like this), it is still unusable for me, requiring manual registry edits to get it to work each time.
In case it helps, these are the keys (attached)

Thanks for the report. What keys exactly do you delete to make it work? We should automate this and delete them before installing the app
I have been deleting the entire tree, so, from the 'folder' on the left. After that, the installation will work just fine. I wonder if this is due to the installer simply installing - I cannot recall seeing it do an 'uninstall' first, as many do. Thanks. Let me know if you need any further information.
