Notice the second to last row where the true version of the program is contained: 9.0.0

Hmm, that must be a bug in Inno Setup. I see only one version variable in the config file (and it is the current version): https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ/blob/d6eb392a1b942777e243127def6403980250c491/shared/copyq.iss

Mmm, this is unrelated right?

Yup, that script only fetches screenshots for a given version from the build.

I can confirm this isn't a CopyQ bug, but instead a bug from BCUninstaller.

I faced this issue before with JupyterLab Desktop. Even after clean uninstallation within BCUninstaller, the version of JupyterLab never changed. Likely a bug from the registry cleaning process, because re-installing Windows corrected this issue.

Here is a picture of CopyQ 9.1.0 showing correctly

I think checking "Display Name" and "Display Version" keys inside registry path on your system could provide a hint.

Currently I can't reproduce this issue anymore so I can't report to BCUninstaller. If you don't mind, please create a new issue on BCUninstaller's GitHub and I will be there to provide more information.

Thank you @Nagidrop for confirming it. I guess I'll close the issue.
