somehow difficult to describe with few background information. So just some thoughts.
Maybe take the Tramontana tutorial as starting point: http://wix.tramontana.co.hu/tutorial/upgrades-and-modularization. In general Tramontana seems for me one of the most efficient ways to get into WiX / MSI. Are you handling the whole installer as major upgrade ? Check for file versioning. Did any of the assembly versions decrease ? E.g. 3.100.xx.xx to 3.11.xx.xx Regards Tobias 2011/8/17 Kurt Jensen <kurt.jen...@us.ophiropt.com>: > (not sure of exact terminology here since WiX is a part time task, please > bear with me…) > > > > Have setup our installations to do an upgrade from version to version as > follows: > > > > <Upgrade Id="$(var.UpgradeCode)"> > > <UpgradeVersion Minimum="$(var.BGProductVersion)" > > IncludeMinimum="no" > > OnlyDetect="yes" > > Language="1033" > > Property="NEWPRODUCTFOUND" /> > > > > <UpgradeVersion Minimum="5.3.0" > > IncludeMinimum="yes" > > Maximum="$(var.BGProductVersion)" > > IncludeMaximum="no" > > Language="1033" > > Property="UPGRADEFOUND" /> > > > > </Upgrade> > > > > In upgrading our software from v5.5 to v5.6 we are adding four new files. > Three of the new files are installed, one of the files is not.
