AutoIt v3 Installer overwrites PowerShell Envirovment Path

Description

I've just installed the newest version of AutoIt v3. It removed the old version, installed the latest version in its place. While that worked fine, I noticed that my PowerShell Modules stopped working.

$CurrentValue = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("PSModulePath", "Machine")
$CurrentValue -split ';'

Confirms this issue. There's only AutoIt module path. I've written short blog post about it: https://evotec.xyz/powershell-environment-path-is-missing-or-overwritten/

This was fixed in version v3.3.13.14, so when upgrading from any version before v3.3.13.14, you can still have this issue as the uninstall is done by the old version installer.
I will close this for now and report if this issue occurs with uninstall of any version eq or gt v3.3.13.14.
