We are using Wix to install our (Java) application. Updating works fine, even launched application (and service) are handled gracefully.
For providing users who report bugs a very quick bug-fix build we offer a plain zip file containing just the replaced few binary (.jar) files which they can replace themself in the installed application (we don't want to create a separate installer for several reasons). Unfortunately, if such binaries are replaced, the official next update Wix-based release (full bundle which will not require a previous installation) will NOT replace them with the new files. It looks like Wix automatically detects that the files were changed (by content or file time?) and then rejects to remove them when updating or uninstalling. What is the easiest way to tell Wix to uninstall/update the replaced files, too?
