Debug Log:
I read the instructions above:

Description

Unable to uninstall CHIRP from Control Panel. The uninstall string in registry has an extra " in the path causing an error. "Windows cannot find 'C:\Program Files (x86)\CHIRP\Uninstall"'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."

Removing the extra " at the end of this registry path fixes the issue. Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\CHIRP\UninstallString\"C:\Program Files (x86)\CHIRP\Uninstall.exe""

DisplayVersion and Publisher strings are also missing from the registry key, so Add\Remove Programs doesn't show Version or Publisher info.

I've fixed this (the quote issue) for the next build, whenever that happens.

You fixed just the quote issue. There is still no version info added to registry during installation process. Please, add it - I want to make CHIRP available in winget, but without version in registry it is not possible.
Thank you Sam.
