Hi,
thank you for this hint. I found more information now after searching
for Major Upgrade.
But somehow I couldn't find a working example.
Here is my xml file:
?xml version='1.0'?

Yeah sure. Check out Major Upgrade.
Hi,
if I try to install a new version of my msi file, I get the error message,
that I need to uninstall it first.
Is there a way to automatically uninstall it? Is possible to enable a switch
in the wix file that says delete old version on install?
The next best solution would be an option if you start the installation from
the shell.
