Why did you downgrade from version 4.1 to 3.4?
Normally when you downgrade almost any application you have to reinstall the newer version first. The installer gets confused as it is not something that is normally done. Installers don't like overwriting files that are newer than the ones it is trying to install.
I would completely un-install what you have and start again from scratch if you really do want version 3.4.
