    You could add a version file in the C:\Program Files\ExamWritePad" folder, for example, a v1.txt by adjusting the install.cmd with to this:
    Copy /y .\ExamWritePadSettings.Json "C:\Program Files\ExamWritePad"
    echo "v1" > "C:\Program Files\ExamWritePad\v1.txt"

    If you ever have to update it again, adjust the install.cmd with:
    Copy /y .\ExamWritePadSettings.Json "C:\Program Files\ExamWritePad"
    echo "v2" > "C:\Program Files\ExamWritePad\v2.txt"

    And change the detection to C:\Program Files\ExamWritePad\v2.txt
