5.1.4 to 5.2.1 update not working for Komodo IDE

I am currently running Komodo IDE 5.1.4 build 30485 on Vista Ultimate 32 bit.
I am having trouble getting the Komodo update to install.
When I start Komodo in the morning, there is a notification that tells me Komodo 5.2.1 is available. I click through to download and install. Komodo says it will restart in order to update but it comes back quickly still at 5.1.4.

I've even tried downloading the install package, but that only gives me "repair" or "uninstall" options.
Is there anything I could try to get this update done?

Try running Komodo as an admin user (you can normally right-click on the Komodo icon and choose the "Run as" menu option.

Else, if that fails to work you can manually uninstall the existing version and then download and install the latest Komodo version from:

Thanks! That did the trick!
