Check for the old dxbase ini file may have been left in Windows folder, and it may be referring to the wrong dxbase folder now. Remove it and reinstall, or edit with notepad, or similar, and check and correct the paths

I uninstalled both of the previous versions and did a fresh install which appeared to run with no issues. The install was into C:\Amateur Radio\DXbase2007 When I started the fresh install, it asked me which database to open but not asking me for the normal new install information like call sign. When I try to start it using the Trial.mdb database in the new install director, it gives me the following error message: "The database you selected is not compatible with this version of DXbase. Try again and choose the right database. DXbase will now abort." And it did exit. It would appear that the old registry information was still hanging around. Shouldn't the uninstall procedure clean up the registry? How to proceed?
