What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install putty
2. delete its uninstaller file (c:\Program Files\putty\unins000.exe) without
going through its uninstaller
3. try to reinstall it using npackd
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
That I would have an option to reinstall/upgrade it in its place even though
the latest version is marked installed so that I can restore the installation.
Instead, npackd just gives errors when I try to uninstall it and does not give
me an option to upgrade it to itself or reinstall or delete the installation
entry.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.18.7 on Windows 8.1 64-bit.
Please provide any additional information below.
I cannot uninstall putty through npackd's UI. I think if I can just mark it as
not being installed in the first place, npackd would let me install it again. I
worked around this issue by deleting the C:\Program Files\putty folder.
