error updating skin studio professional

I have been unable to update Skin Studio Professional via SDC for several days now. I get the same error each time.

I currently have v 4.10.016 installed and SDC shows 4.20.019 as the latest, but each time I try to update I get the same error about incorrect file size. How can I correct this?

The message in the log file is as follows:

Use SDC to uninstall Skin Studio, delete the folder C:\ProgramFiles\Stardock\ObjectDesktop\SkinStudio and reboot. You should then be able to use SDC to download and install SkinStudio without the error.

Thanks Fuzzy Logic, your suggestion worked just fine.

Sorry for the delay in replying, just that I have been away recently.
