3 The listed versions are:
Calibre 64 bit 190 MB, 11/8/2018
Calibre 64 bit 191 MB, 2/5/2019
Calibre 64 bit 191 MB, 3/9/2019

I wonder if future calibre versions will also be added to the listing.
Rebooting does not remove the older versions.

I have only 1 instance of Calibre in the "Program Files" of Windows Explorer at 192MB
Could I uninstall the 2 older app versions without losing the calibre program?
Something is messed up (rogue sync ,blocked registry update). That should never happen

Uninstall ALL versions. (Calibre does not remove Libraries EVER, settings are also left in place).
You may need to do additional cleaning (others can recommend tools that don't do other damage)
Once that is done, just install the latest version and you should be good to go
