Re: [wix-users] (deprecated) Windows Installer Repair Failure

[Colin Sim]

We're doing a major upgrade and RemoveExistingProducts may not be schedule in 
the most efficient place, i.e. between InstallValidate and InstallInitialize.

I'll attach the upgrade log in a following email as it's 42MB in size and I'm 
not sure if it'll be allowed.

I must say that the description doesn't seem right Can you post the full log 
with no inline comments?

If this is a major upgrade then depending on the scheduling of 
RemoveExistingProducts
<https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371197(v=vs.85).aspx>   you'll
get a full uninstall then full install, or delete/overwrite/add files.

For minor upgardes you will not get any removal, just overwrite/add files.
The partial log you posted isn't enough for me to understand which- if any- 
upgrade is occuring.
