Description
[write something useful and descriptive here]
After today's update I'm stuck with "Starting up Keybase". Hard reset didn't help, and when I start the latest installer from your web, it says "The specified account already exists."

Start with the provided log ID 7a412dec7b9145637cf4d41c and reproduce the Windows GUI startup failure after the 2019-10-15 update. Investigate why the installer reports that the specified account already exists; done means the GUI starts normally after updating or reinstalling.
