http://faforever.com/faf/FAForeverLobby-354.msi <--- try to install this, maybe after a computer restart (this is the latest live build).

I really, really don't know what's the issue here. Fix It should have, well, fixed it.

What version of windows do you use?

You may need to remove the program using a 3rd party uninstaller like CCleaner ( http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard ), it can remove uninstall items from your registry without actually "uninstalling" them, and you should be able to reinstall then.

I'm sorry this happened, I have no idea why your OS insists on accessing the old MSI.

Ever since version 0.6.340, I am using a new updater process so the update.msi is not even created anymore (and it seems like yours was damaged or overwritten).
