Alternatively to the use of the GUID you might use the MSI file for uninstall as well. I prefer this method since some packagers tend to create new GUID strings on each release - so you need to search for the right ID at each release. Using the MSI file obsoletes this step:

MSI installer package.xml for use with existing older exe based installs
Background The hosts on my network are a mix of 7-Zip (various versions) .exe and .msi based installs. If you do a .msi based install without first uninstalling the .exe version it will leave some files from the .exe based install intact as well as an entry in "Add/Remove Programs".
Use this if you have existing .exe based installs of 7-Zip (such as 4.20) and you would like to uninstall them before switching to an .msi based install.

MSI installer for use with existing older exe based installs with mixed 32-bit/64-bit hosts
On a 64-bit host, the 64-bit version is more useful, because the 32-bit version of 7-Zip doesn't integrate in the Windows Explorer.
Warning: The approach demonstrated below which checks the value of "PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE" in the registry is flawed for several reasons:
- When you remove the package, 7zip-x64 will never be detected as being successfully removed on 32bit systems (and vice versa), because the check on "PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE" will always return true.
- When you upgrade the package and increase the revision number, WPKG will detect this and try to execute the upgrade commands even if the check statements return true! However on a 32bit host the upgrade commands of 7zip-x64 will of course always fail, as will the upgrade commands of 7zip on a 64bit host.
- "So please remember that checks are NOT there to check if a package applies to the system if the checks are true. Checks are there to verify that a package is installed properly and WPKG will run the commands over and over again until checks become true. In case of your checks they will never become true since the package will for sure not change the PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE or CurrentVersion value." (WPKG author Rainer Meier - wpkg-users)
A better approach is to either A) put both packages "7zip" and "7zip-x64" in your package database without the checks on PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE and assign "7zip" only to 32bit hosts and "7zip-x64" only to 64bit hosts, or B) create only one package that contains both the 32bit and 64bit installers of 7-Zip, and write a custom installer script that checks the operating system and installs the correct version of 7-Zip.

MSI installer package.xml for 7-zip x64
For the 64 bit version of 7-Zip you just have to change the check-flag. This is the method, which sets 7-Zip as default application for archives.
