I had this or a similar problem with InstallShield. The previous version
was upgraded but the entry wasn't deleted. So I created a cleanup Component
to delete the old registry key. Just check if the previous version was
correctly uninstalled during upgrade.

Here is my code:

<ComponentGroup Id="CompGrp_CleanUpUpgradedRegistryComponents"
Directory="INSTALLFOLDER">    <Component Id="Comp_RegistryKey_Cleanup"
              KeyPath="yes">
<Condition>WIX_UPGRADE_DETECTED</Condition>    <RemoveRegistryKey
Id="RemRegKey_OldInstall"                       Root="HKLM"
           
Key="SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENTVERSION\Uninstall\InstallShield_{guid}"
                      Action="removeOnInstall" />
</Component></ComponentGroup>

BR,
Marlos
