Changes
→MSI Package: new section
For any reason, uninstall of pdfcreator leaves unins000.exe and new installation creates unins001.exe and unins001.dat. So you may check for dat-File rather than exe and delete whole pdfcreator directory before installing. You get strange screens from uninstall without acompaying dat-File.
