Description

### Solution to issue cannot be found in the documentation.

- [X] I checked the documentation.

### Issue

I've previously installed mambaforge using the Mambaforge-4.13.0-1-Windows-x86_64.exe installer (double-clicking the exe). Tried Mambaforge-23.1.0-0-Windows-x86_64.exe the same way and it gives alert:

> Directory 'C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\mambaforge' is not empty,
> please choose a different location.

I've run `Mambaforge-23.1.0-0-Windows-x86_64.exe /?` at a command prompt to list its arguments and it appears there is no upgrade switch.

It would help to include an option for upgrading mambaforge to a newer version, and/or to provide guidance in how to do this in a way that retains existing environments.
