That looks like the problem. Looks like I can simply specify UpgradeVersion/@MigrateFeatures="yes" and wix will do the rest.

Michael -----Original Message----- From: Matt Johnson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 7 May 2010 6:54 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: [WiX-users] How to retain feature selection during major upgrade? I've followed the article in the Wix docs titled "How To: Implement a Major Upgrade In Your Installer". Everything works fine, except when I perform the major upgrade, it uses the default feature selection rather than selecting the features that were installed with the prior version. So I have two features, A and B that are normally installed by default. The user installs version 1 and selects only feature A. Then some time later the user goes to install version 2. I want only feature A upgraded. The current functionality is to have both features enabled, which upgrades feature A and installs feature B. How can I check the previous feature selection so the feature tree is loaded properly with the prior selections? I use the standard CustomizeDlg from WixUI.
