Изначально у меня была установлена повреждённая версия 7.18 beta 1, которая после проявления проблемы с ней обновлена поверх установщиком nightly 3, которая затем автоматически обновлена на исправленную 7.18 beta 2.

I had AdGuard for Windows beta installed, and I was trying to uninstall the program. However, my program's app settings showed two AdGuard for Windows installed. Only one would uninstall for me, but the other wouldn't. So when I went to install the AdGuard For Windows Release version, the program would not install, so I tried AdGuard For Windows Nightly, and the program installed, but it still showed two AdGuard Programs.

@Batman2814 Rewind the system date to 2024.06.10 and then select the bottom entry 7.18.4746.0 to delete.

Thank you for your assistance in uninstalling the program.

@Batman2814 hi! The function to delete the previous version is added only when updating, it will not be available during a clean installation. To delete old data, you can use our uninstall utility tool, you can also delete a file in the Package Cache
