Description David J. Orme 2002-01-28 15:01:19 UTC 
I ran the uninstall program via Start!Settings!"Control Panel" for version
0.88.  However, the install program for 0.99pre1 still says "dia is already
installed.  Please uninstall it first" and I can't install it.
Comment 1 Steffen Macke 2002-01-28 15:45:36 UTC 
This is because the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/diaFile was not
removed by the dia uninstaller. 

Manually removing this solves the problem.

The next version of the installer should take care of the problem.

If install does not work properly you can always delete the files and
directory and then use "Regclean" from Microsoft to get rid of any
crap in your registry.  

if Steffen says this is fixed in the latest version then i geuss this
should be closed (crap i dont have enough privileges, nevermind)
reopen if the problem still happens in newer versions, thanks.

Closing, as per Stephen's comment.
