If the settings change, just update the settings.

The client runs a service, so you must reboot to fully get rid of the previous installation.

I never remove the client, I just update the settings with the following package:

<!-- code start (watch for line wraps) -->

        <!-- replace x32 with x86 and x64 with AMD64 in the installer file name -->
