On the Inkscape download/windows/ page it says 'exe and msi installers are equivalent but not compatible (i.e. one can not update the installation of the other)'. This seems to imply, for example, that a new msi installer can update a previous msi installation. However, when I try to install using the msi installer, I get a message saying 'Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue', and the existing version needs to be removed before installing the new version. This happened before for 0.91-x64.msi -> 0.92.0-x64.msi and has just happened again for 0.92.0-x64.msi -> 0.92.1-x64.msi. This is under Windows 7.
Is this behaviour expected?
