Issue: Why do I have two entries?  Is it safe to uninstall the older entry 4.0.16 (i.e. will not cause any issues with 4.0.39?)

I was able to solve this one, thankfully I didn't just run the uninstall for 4.0.16 (as both entries were pointing to the same uninstaller path and command line options) ... required checking the registry, looks like the 4.0.16 version was missing the "{"  and at end "}" on the key name, the key value was the same.  Removed the entry missing the curly brackets.

 

Cheers, Rob.

Hi Rob,

 

This was caused by a major change in our update system between versions 4.0.16 and 4.0.20. As you've discovered, running the earlier uninstaller will indeed uninstall the later one.
