install the most recent version of sql source control?

jHen

I have recently installed ssms 19.1 and have uninstalled a reinstalled redgate toolbelt essentials with a fresh download today(6/15/23). I still have both Ssms 18 and 19 installed.   SQL source control won't start in ssms 19 this looks to be what is related to the release notes for the product 7.6.11.17356 - June 7th, 2023 VT-310 - Fixed issue with launching plugin in SSMS 19.1. This release did not install or the release after it. Best I can tell by looking at the DLL files the version that installed is 7.6.0.17104

No matter how I try to get the version that fixes my issue i believe It keeps installing the old one. I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few times. 

What am I missing?

I get this logging into SSMS. Do you get something similar?
