If you rerun the kdewin-installer and point to the existing
installation, it should give you some options to update to newer
packages.

Do you really have the latest version of the kdewin-installer?
Also I am wondering why it tries to access the sourceforge page.

I went to the first item under kdewin on Google, "KDE - Experience
Freedom"<br>
File to download is called " <b>kdewin-installer-gui-latest.exe"</b><br>
It produced a download which shows up on the Thunderbird command
line as<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://download.kde.org/stable/kdewin/installer/kdewin-installer-gui-latest.exe.mirrorlist">"http://download.kde.org/stable/kdewin/installer/kdewin-installer-gui-latest.exe.mirrorlist"</a><br>
A couple of windows come up, asking if I'd like to update the
installer from the Internet,<br>
already checked as yes.<br>
<br>
I also found something called "kdewin-installer-gui-1.0.0.exe.meta4"
but Windows complains<br>
that it can't open that file. (I'm not surprised.) The whole Google
file reads:<br>
<h3 class="r"><a
