Well, some progress in this one: I actually did get past the UAC prompt to the
installer. However, it suffers from the orphan process bug too, and this time I
can't find any way to get around it. After killing all the rogue digiKam
processes as described previously (the installer's kill option doesn't work,
just as before), I get an error message saying:

"You have C:\Program Files\digiKam\uninstall.exe running in C:\Program
Files\digiKam. Select "Yes" to kill the process(es), "No" to retry or "Cancel"
to quit."

Clicking "Yes" dumps the installer back to digiKam 8.2.0 initial setup dialog,
where clicking "Yes" presents the error message above all over again. Killing
the rogue uninstall.exe process above doesn't fix or change any of the above.

As before, I had to use Process Explorer to kill the rogue processes. I'm still
confused as to how/why digiKam leaves orphan processes after exit 🤷‍♂️

So, in summary: different variation of the same problem, with the same result.
