How are you running AnythingLLM?

AnythingLLM desktop app

What happened?

When I install the newest version v 1.8.0 ,the setup program displays an alert messagebox。it says

AnythingLLM cannot be closed.
Please manually close it and click retry to continue.

when i click "Retry" button,it still alerts the same infomation

when click "Cancel" button
it displays a message below:

Failed to uninstall old application files. Please try running the installer again.: 2

in fact ,no any other AnythingLLM process in my machine but the setup process.

so i must uninstall AnythingLLM and setup again to fix it
