Even after uninstalling/updating/reinstalling, itch app still says I need to upgrade to version 25

I'm using Window 10 64-bit. Here's what my process has been:

Uninstalling itch app through the Programs list on Windows settings.
Downloading the new installer directly from itch.io.
Running installer (works fine)
Opening itch app, still getting a big purple notification screen saying "need to upgrade to version 25" and that this version is no longer supported :(

Hi! My guess is that v23 never quit. You can quit it with Ctrl+Q. Then, when you start the itch app again, you should be seeing v25.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, this worked perfectly! I definitely wouldn't have thought of that on my own--I don't think I've ctrl+Q'd anything since the days when I used to use an iMac (cmd+Q)

I was having this exact same issue. Making sure the old version was fully closed did the trick. Now I fell silly for not thinking of it.
