Three thoughts come to mind: 1. Most of what you are looking for can easily be achieved using Features (a concept in Windows Installer that WiX supports quite well), although rolling back would be difficult-to-impossible (all the rest of your requirements would be relatively easy to meet). 2. If

I believe this is an open feature request. Implementing the feature requires opening the Merge Modules to find matching signatures. The WiX toolset doesn't persist data like that from build to build so it could a pretty bad performance hit until a solution for caching ModuleSignatures was developed
