[FIXED!] NPVRSetup.exe fails to install the latest version

[Pete (NZ)]

I've been unable to install any later version on my new Win11pro machine past version 5.0.
I ran the latest version of NPVRSetup.exe, and the installation completed.
I've uninstalled, and re-installed. I have plenty of spare RAM and disk space.

Settings says "Version: 5.0.6.200614  (6.1.5.231022 is available for download) "

v5.0 is working, but I can't link it to Kodi v21.1, where the NextPVR addon insists I have at least v5.2 of the NPVR backen running.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

PS. I "may?" have run, initially, an old version of NPVRSetup.exe (that I had on my hard drive store of installers) and that installed v5.0 (which is 4 years old now!)...? I was under the impression the setup installer always downloaded the lastest version, so I don't think I bothered to update the installer, perhaps? I dunno, but that's the only explanation that, IMHO, explains why such an old version is installed. And for some reason, the new NPVRSetup.exe can't install such an old version...?

It could be that NPVR.zip is n the folder with the installer, if so remove it.

Yep, thanks Martin... it was indeed! An NPVR.zip from Jun2020! I didn't realise how it worked like that, so thanks for the info!
Have deleted the .zip file, re-ran the setup exe, and all updated now.
