BruceKHaddon opened a new issue, #8049:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/8049

   ### Apache NetBeans version
   
   Apache NetBeans 23
   
   ### What happened
   
   I am attempting to uninstall NetBeans 23 and then to install NetBeans 24. 
But I get the pop-up message shown in the  screen shot  
   dropped below. The message reads:
   "The specified target component - nb-all/23 .0.0.240913.0 was not found in 
the registry. The installer can continue as if the target was not specified. 
Click yes to continue, No to exit the installer."
   Clicking yes brings up the screen with the "Uninstall" button, which when 
clicked brings up a window with "Setup Complete" in the title, and a "Finish" 
button. Clicking this and the window goes away. NetBeans 23 is not uninstalled.

   ### Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component
   
   NetBeans Windows uninstaller
   
   ### How to reproduce
   
   The steps are provided in the description above. It is reproducible as it 
happens on every attempt. I have no idea how you might reproduce this yourself. 
Is there any way to use regedit to create the needed registry entry?
   
   (On the first attempt to uninstall, there was a message to say that the 
registry.xml file in AppData, was in error or incomplete but this did not 
appear again on the later attempts, or the one used to obtain the screen image.)
   
   As a note, I have installed (and uninstalled) every major and minor release 
of NetBeans since version 3.0. This is the first time this behavior has been 
seen.
   
   ### Did this work correctly in an earlier version?
   
   Apache NetBeans 22
   
   ### Operating System
   
   Windows Pro 22H2 (build 19045.5247)
   
   ### JDK
   
   JDK-23 (installed 2024-09-21)
   
   ### Apache NetBeans packaging
   
   Apache NetBeans provided installer
   
   ### Anything else
   
   The are no messages in the messages.log file for this date (2024-12-13). 
Apparently the uninstall did not get far enough along to record any status.
   
   ### Are you willing to submit a pull request?
   
   No
