@chyndman: do you think you can give us a hand on this one? :)

chyndman commented

@josevalim Sure! I'll see how to go about this in Inno Setup, but I'll probably end up pushing code after I'm done with classes (last one on Dec. 10th) or maybe not until after finals (last one on Dec. 19th).

Sure, exams are definitely more important, so good studies!

See this commit which offers to uninstall the previously installed version. By design, the installer only allows for one version to be installed at a time. So if we don't like this restriction we'll want to explore other solutions to this issue.

That looks great, thank you! Should we release a new version and put it online?

@ericmj please update hex!

I'm guessing 1.0.1 is the new version? Pushed it to S3.
