My suggestion would have been to do exactly waht I did when in the same shoes only a few days ago and that was to search the registry and delete any folders with Silent Hunter 4 on them. One of which contains the current version number. After that you can reinstall fine but make sure you reinstall to the same location as before to ensure all old files are overwritten.

It also happen recently to me with MTW2 as well as SH4. I think its something introduced in some recent Windows update that prevents you from installing over previous later versions. Ive never noticed it until recently. Its a right pain thats for sure.
