I think it would be best if it could detect a current 
install (either 32 or 64 bit) and offer to uninstall but 
also offer to install side-by-side. This is also handy 
for having multiple versions installed. I currently make 
a copy of the installed folder before installing a new 
version which uninstalls the current installation.

It think it is also good to offer to update the path or 
not (it does that already, right?) and when updating 
remove the old path and enter the new one.

Is this possible or too difficult?
