There's no automatic support for that in MSI. You could store the 
current association in the registry, retrieve it using RegistrySearch, 
then write it back.

[WiX-users] file association issue

[vij]

Hi,
  During the installation of our product (our product is a multimedia player), 
we are doing some file association with our product.
  Our requirement is; "Allow multiple versioins of player to coexist".
  Issue: When newer version(V2) is installed over the earlier version( V1), all 
the files are getting associated with V2 as expected. 
  when we un-install V2, we want file association reverted to V1, but this is 
not happening.
   
  Below given is the WiX code I am using for file assoication:
  





   
  am I doing something wrong? Any help will be highly appreciated!.
   
  thanks
  Vij
