Hard to tell with the information you provided. Could you please try upgrading again after restarting your computer?
If that doesn’t help, please upload the log files and/or try running choco upgrade with the --debug flag. I don’t use GPT4All, so I cannot test it myself at the moment.

This has been the case since the 3.5.0 update. Maybe something has changed in the installer? Or this might be an issue with gpt4all itself?

The log that I initially posted:

comes from invoking the command that is ran by the upgrade script

.\gpt4all-installer-win64-v3.5.3.exe update --accept-licenses --default-answer --confirm-command

Okay, it seems like their installer can no longer be used for upgrading or uninstalling the package. I opened nomic-ai/gpt4all#3326 so that they will hopefully fix this as it makes little sense for me to try and work around this every time something with their installer changes.
