That is normal Windows Installer (MSI) behaviour. It wants to access the installer for the previous version in order to perform an uninstall of the previous version. I don't know why it does this, I've never seen it on my own PC.
Normally the message will consist of more than the part your quoted. In particular it normally gives the full path of the missing file, hence all you need do is get the old installer, extract the relevant MSI file, and copy it to the appropriate place. Google past discussions on this site for the details. E.g. here.
