Description
Small cosmetic issue: I just updated Npcap on my Windows 10 VM, and noticed that the installer, when uninstalling the previous version of Npcap, which wasn't 1.0 (unless it got installed in the background today), it said it was uninstalling 1.0.

Research direction
Reproduce the upgrade from an Npcap 0.999x installation to 1.0 on a Windows 10 VM and observe the uninstall step for the previous version. Trace the installer’s version display logic; done means the uninstall message identifies the actual previous version rather than 1.0.
