The settings for the diff tools are stored per-user, not per-machine. So
the installer does *not* write those registry keys at all. It's
TortoiseProc which creates those entries if they don't already exist.
But if they exist, TortoiseProc won't change them because it could
overwrite user settings.

If you want TortoiseProc to recreate those settings to the defaults, you
have to remove the registry key HKCU\Software\TortoiseSVN\DiffTools
and then remove the registry value HKCU\Software\TortoiseSVN\CurrentVersion
