Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that did not help either. I have also checked the /Program Files(x86), the appdata folder, Windows Registry Editor, etc and have no found any trace of the previous installation. Yet, If I try to install either LO 3.4.3 or 3.3.4 - they think the old installation is there.
