I looked up the documentation for the (un)install registry
keys, searched for 'bat' within that area and (after I
eliminated all of the acroBAT items) found entries for both
TheBat! 5.1.6.1 and TheBat! 5.1.6. That surprised me, since
I expected the newer one to have replaced/removed the older.
Also, I'm not well versed in UUIDs, so I don't know if I
should be surprised that 5.1.6 and 5.1.6.1 use different
UUIDs:
5.1.6: {3C4A8F69-DD0D-4B06-A765-4DFF1F6C8C02}
5.1.6.1: {09E7FC03-5E08-4D53-ABCA-9F9E2BCF6FB7}
And, FWIW, the root key for the uninstall information is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
Later followup...
I used the 5.1.6.2 MSI and it did not produce the warning
message about the old 4.x version. This could be due to
either the Microsoft Fix-It utility finally having worked,
the Glary Utilities Registry Cleanup which reported issues
with uninstallers for missing programs and claimed to have
cleaned them and/or RIT changed something in the MSI.
Regardless, the issue is gone for me. Hooray!
