MariaDB 10.6 is Driving me Insane!

I thought it was time I upgraded the main playout PC to MariaDB 10.6

Despite Uninstalling 10.5 (following my own instructions) MariaDB 10.6 now refuses to install at all because it still thinks 10.5 is installed

I'm tearing out what little hair I have out right now.

I'm hoping a system restore may help if it doesn't I'm left without a functioning copy of RadioDJ 2034 anyone else experienced these issues while upgrading MariaDB?

I've had to reset everything back to scratch again  >:D >:D >:D

Even after a reset MariaDB thought it was still installed despite me telling Windows reset to remove all files etc... 

Why DO I suck at Windows? Well computers in general... Things always go wrong for me when I'm trying to do shizzle.

SIGH!!

I'm at an absolute loss now, Despite reformatting Windows 10 back to original state MariaDB seems to think that MariaDB is still installed.

It will NOT install 10.6.5 on my machine that's 2 times I've reset Windows 10 now and it sort of renders my main playout machine useless if it won't run MariaDB. As you can probably imagine the AIR IS BLUE in this room...

I had a perfect working database before I started trying to upgrade MariaDB this afternoon. I'm speechless.


Any or all suggestions would help at this point. I don't see how I've gone wrong
