How to install 5.7 in SSMS 2017 when already installed in SSMS 2017

Hi there. I'm trying to install SQL Source Control 5.7 in SSMS 2017 (which does not have it installed), but I already have 5.7 installed in SSMS 2016. When I run in the installer from the link in a previous post, it says it's "Already installed".
Thanks
Thanks

Hi,
This is intended behaviour. To get into a new version of SSMS you will need to uninstall and install again. Or you can download a later version (we have several frequent releases since 5.7) and update to that.Peter Gerrard

You can turn on Frequent Updates in SSMS 16: https://documentation.red-gate.com/soc5/installing-licensing-and-updating/update/configuring-frequent-updates/configuring-frequent-updates-in-version-5-4-and-abovePeter Gerrard

You can use the the Check for Update feature: https://documentation.red-gate.com/soc6/installing-licensing-and-updating/update/checking-for-updates
If you want to upgrade to the very latest version you should enable Frequent updates:
