Dear Fengchao, Thanks for your message - we will look into this and get back to you. Could you please let us know which windows version you're working on? Best, Isabell
Hi Isabell,
It's Windows 10 Enterprise, version 1909, build 18363.1679.
Best,

An update: uninstall the old AlphaMap will solve this issue. I guess the new installer does not update some old files.
Best,
Fengchao
Ok that is good to know - thanks for checking this! @swillems: Could you take a look if this issue is easy to fix in the installer?
For macOS this should be correctly enforced already. Our tagging is inconsistent with our versioning (e.g. tags are date-based: v0.0.210730-alpha, while versions are traditional: 0.0.8), although I do not think this is the issue for our InnoInstaller setup. We for sure should fix the AppId in the InnoInstaller script, as this seems to be copy-pasted from AlphaTims directly which can cause conflicts if both are installed. I have seen @fcyu on the AlphaTims repo already too, perhaps good to clarify when and which versions of both AlphaMap and AlphaTims were installed and in which order before we try to dig deeper?
Hi @swillems ,
Thanks for your message. My computer did not have AlphaTims installed when I was installing and running AlphaPept.

Thanks for submitting this issue! We've added a warning "To prevent installation errors on Windows, we recommend uninstalling the previous AlphaMap version before installing a new one." in the gui_manual.pdf file and in the README.md file.
Hi developers,
I am using the latest windows installer (https://github.com/MannLabs/alphamap/releases/tag/v0.0.210730-alpha). My computer has an older version, I didn't uninstall it before installing the new one. Not sure if it makes any difference.
Following is the whole error message
Thanks,
Fengchao
