October Update not Updating. Stuck on January 2016 Version.
Have you modified any registry key or file related to Power BI Desktop? After you uninstall the Power BI Desktop from Programs and Features, please make sure that the Power BI files under Program Files and AppData have all been removed. You’d better also have a restart after uninstallation before new installation.
BTW, what is the old version before you upgrade to latest October version? The version released in January 2016?
You can try the new features like Date slicer[blog] [video] listed in this document. If they exist in your current Power BI Desktop, it represents that you have the latest version installed just with a wrong Month version.

I just tested out the slicer for the October update and it is not available. This leads me to believe my software is not updating. Since I have repeatedly tried a complete uninstall/reinstall I am not sure of the appropriate next step.

Have you tried to install the same PBI Desktop install package on another computer to see if issue repro? Is there any policy restriction on registry key/file on your current computer?
