In a successful upgrade AgentLib.Interop.dll gets replaced if there was a newer version (which is the case going from 396 to 1079), looks like MSI doesn't pay much attention to the version but looks at file properties like size and hash code instead. I should fix the version on this, I remember having seen this in the past but forgot to fix it since it wasn't causing any issues then.
The two CefSharp dlls don't get replaced because they didn't change. Those come from a third party NuGet package, so I don't control the versioning of those files and will have to live without a version number on them. // Sascha On Mon, Sep 8, 2014 at 12:17 PM, John Cooper <jocoo...@jackhenry.com> wrote: > I notice that Agent.Interop.dll, CefSharp.dll, and CefSharpt.Wpf.dll all > are completely unversioned (no version numbers at all).
