I guess what Phil is asking you to do is to make use of MoveFiles action to accomplish what you want to do.
The MoveFiles action locates existing files on the user's computer and moves or copies those files to a new location. The MoveFiles action queries the MoveFile table and moves files specified there if the component linked to the entries is specified to be install locally or is being run from source. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa370054(v=vs.85).aspx So to accomplish this: -Make use of MoveFiles action to copy the existing file to your new installation directory -Schedule RemoveExistingProducts after InstallFiles but somewhere before InstallFinalize Hope this helps.
