The Install log appears to indicate otherwise:

Checking version of the FSX EXE:
... Version 4.5.14.34698

which clearly indicates a version of Prepar3D version 4. This isn't surprising since the FSX install path in your Windows Registry gives

SetupPath="C:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\"

This is confirmed by the sequence:

How your Registry got in such a mess I don't really know.  A complete uninstall of FSX and re-install should fix it. It would be quicker to edit the Registry directly, using RegEdit, but take care to make a Restore Point first, then using RegEdit go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0

and edit the SetupPath parameter to point to wherever you put FSX.
