SQL Prompt 9.5.8.10521 won't install in VS2019 or SSMS18.1

Hopefully someone has some suggestions...

I have VS2019 and SSMS18.1 installed, and previously had SQL Prompt 9.4.9.7873 installed (before installing either VS2019 or SSMS18.1 - I've uninstalled the SSMS that was previously installed).

When I try and run the latest installer (downloaded from the stickied thread), it shows the following error.
Trying to uninstall the current version shows the same message.

Any ideas?

    In case anyone sees this in the future - the issue was actually the uninstall!

    I reinstalled SSMS 17.9, then uninstalled SQL Prompt, then installed the latest SQL Prompt.
    This worked, even in 18.1.
    I then uninstalled SSMS 17.9.

    All good now!

    Thanks for the tip. In my case, I have VS2017 and SSMS 18.1 installed. My error message was slightly different:



    I was about to install 17.9.1 again, but then I got a similar error message from the SSMS installer. So on a hunch, I just rebooted my machine and tried again. This time the Red-Gate install was successful.
