How to update Delphi 10.4 Sydney installation?

Question

I just installed the Windows development environment in Delphi 10.4 Sydney Enterprise from the downloaded ISO (execution of radstudio_10_4_esd_99797b.exe), followed by Update patch 1.

I forgot to check the TeeChart standard component and want to add that.

If I start the executable again it says:

A previous version of RAD Studio 10.4 was found on your system that needs to be uninstalled first.

Given the time this will take I prefer not to uninstall. Is there a way to update without uninstalling?

BTW I tried radstudio_10_4_esd_99797b.exe -update and radstudio_10_4_esd_99797b.exe /update but those did not work.

The Tools menu option Manage Platforms.. within Delphi can be used to bring up the same dialog as used during install to choose Platforms and Additional Options. The optional component TeeChart Standard is on the Additional Options tab.

A very obscure place to put option for modifying installation. – Wodzu Jan 06 '23 at 11:37
'Manage Platforms' is now also available in the Welcome screen – Jan Doggen Apr 17 '23 at 13:26
