DXLab suite has one of the most comprehensive and easy to use install and upgrade facilities I have used. The only potentially confusing part of the operation is checking to see if you have already installed a version of "Launcher". This is pretty clearly explained on the DXLabs home page. Once you have a copy of Launcher installed, then installing or upgrading the other components fantastically easy.

Hi!
This software (DXLab) is not too complicated as such. But somehow the developers
have succeeded to make installing and uninstalling of this program quite a mess. fThere is much to improve in that respect. That is my humble opinion and not blaming anybody. I myself could not create even a simplest software. I just use them.

What happens when you direct the Launcher to install Commander and
SpotCollector?
The Launcher shows both commander and spot collector as installed already and does not offer the install option.
That means that the Registry settings that the Launcher relies on to determine if these applications are installed indicate that these applications are installed.
If you click on upgrade it generates the message cannot upgrade because "path...spotcollect or.exe does not exist. Upgrade aborted.
That means that the "Program Path" you've specified for SpotCollector on the Launcher's Config window is invalid.
I need to find out if there is something I can delete that will cause launcher to know that commander and spotcollector are not actually installed and allow me to reinstall them.
Your PC's Windows Registry is in an inconsistent state. You can try running the free-ware Revo un-installer, but at this point there can be no guarantees short of "re-install Windows" (which I am not suggesting or recommending) .
