This is a real problem, triggered by the introduction of TortoiseOverlays
which changed some keys in registry for COM servers. There were a number of
mails on the mail list at the introduction of 0.5.
The problem materialise if you go from pre 0.5 to 0.5 or newer.
The solution is simple: The installer should call the uninstaller as the
first step if it detects an installed THG.
