When the mst is applied, the msi cache is not updated with the file version  at 
the end of the installation and hence during patching the file is not updated.
What you can do this try creating the mst correctly, such that it does not 
update the file version in the file table.
Can you let me know how exactly you are trying to create the mst file?

Subject: [WiX-users] Patch issue

Hi
I have a patching issue I need help with. Version 10.1 of my msi installs a dll 
with version 10.1.0. This is the also the version listed in the File table of 
the msi for this dll. This msi is the English setup. I have embedded msts in 
this msi that localizes the dialogs for this msi. There was a problem with this 
mst, so when this mst is applied over the setup msi, the version of this dll in 
the File table is removed. (The dll installed on the machine is OK, it is just 
the File table of the msi that has the version removed when you apply the mst).

I now have an msp for this Version 10.1 that increments the dll to 10.1.1. I am 
finding that when the localized msi is installed (with the mst that removes the 
file version in the file table), and when the msp is applied over this, the dll 
is not patched.

How can I fix the msp so that the file is successfully patched in this scenario?

Thanks!
