[WiX-users] upgrade per-user installation with per-machine
Hi all! Need help. Some msi's have been distribured in Windows domain over GPO as per-user installations. Now I need to upgrade them, upgrades are per-machine (this is better for my purposes). What is proper way to uninstall old applications? Seemed like I can't to upgrade them via Wix code and also msiexec /x do not uninstall (with option ALLUSERS=1 don't uninstall also). -- Sincerely yours, mr. Roman M.

Re: [WiX-users] upgrade per-user installation with per-machine
As you found, the Windows Installer does not support cross scope upgrades. You need to remove the per-user MSIs via some other mechanism first. Not sure GPO has a way to remove it all.
