Having the same UpgradeCode ("upgrade ID") isn't actually a requirement -
just that your new version has the older version's UpgradeCode in the
Upgrade table (Upgrade element). That's key - having the same UpgradeCode
doesn't mean you have an upgrade. In fact, if you don't schedule
RemoveExistingProducts you don't really have an upgrade either - just
related packages.But you're on the right track: the ProductVersion and ProductCode have to change for your UpgradeVersion/@ActionProperty to be set, which in turn triggers the custom action.
