So after doing a ton of analysis I figured out my problem. Here is the process in which my upgraded bundle goes through: Detect packages, apply begin, uninstall existing msi package, install new msi package, apply complete, detect packages, apply begin, uninstall previous bundle. It gets to the point where it attempts to uninstall the previous bundle, but never completes, which I believe is occurring because of the Invokes and the manipulation of the window pointer a second time around. I used the Wix installer as my baseline and it looks like it wasn't made for running an additional detect packages after the initial bundle finishes applying (I could be wrong). When I switch to using the wixstdba the process works perfectly and I never get multiple ARP entries (the sequence is the same as the mba). Is there anyway that I can accomplish this with the managed bootstrapper? (Is there any source code for the wixstddba?)
