I must disagree.  I have just performed the install routine for K3 Utility 1.1.12.22 and have found (as I found with earlier installs) that the old executable file K3Util.exe was not replaced by the install routine.

I use Win 98SE.  After an install over version 1.1.10.17, I find the following files in my Program Files\Elecraft K3 Utility directory:
UNINST~1 EXE        64,512  10-18-03  4:58p uninstall.exe
K3UTIL   EXE       196,608  10-17-08  3:17p K3Util.exe
K3UTIL   CHM       570,088  12-22-08  4:26p K3Util.chm
SETUP    LOG         1,784  12-25-08 10:32a setup.log

As I have encountered this in the past, I am confident that an uninstall followed by a reinstall will solve the problem.  But the uninstall is necessary, at least for my Win 98SE system.
