Gave it some thought and avoided some / still had a couple of other hiccoughs when using new installer for first time.
First - Deleted the C:/Program Files/NPVR folder that I have been using v5 from up till now.
Second - ran sc delete "NextPVR service" from the command prompt (Spotted that - thanks Martin)
Third - Ran the new installer - got a bit of a surprise that its an online installer now.
On logging in to the server for the first time, nothing was working, then Bitdefender informed me it had stopped some malicious software - that's never happened with NPVR before!
Four - returned 4 files from quarantine (vue.min.js, nextpvr client.lnk, nexpvr tray.lnk and wscript.exe from system32) and made exceptions in Bitdefender.
All appears to be working fine now, although maybe I should run the installer again, just to make sure everything got updated.
I have also changed the service startup to un-delayed, as Kodi runs from the startup folder and both him and the wife get stroppy waiting three minutes for the service to start Also added restart service to the first 2 fail options in service properties.

It's not an overly complicated system - it's more - overly simple operatives
