Scriv for Windows auto update issue

Dear All

I am trying to update to 1.8.5.0 from 1.6.1.0 and I am running into an error message:

“Scrivener is not currently running from its last installed location.”

The runtime and the installed location paths that are given are both identical.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Scrivener\Scrivener.exe

The error message then goes onto say that I must uninstall all copies of Scrivener not at the installed location as above. Yet there are no other copies of Scrivener installed.

Would obviously like to update to the latest version but do not want to have to do a full uninstall. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Many thanks in advance.
