Based on the example in the book "WiX: A Developer's Guide To Windows Installer
XML", I added an Upgrade element along with a launch Condition inside my
Product element to detect older versions and remove them during installation.
That part works wonderfully. However, when I run the uninstallation, only the
desktop shortcut is removed. None of the files/folders in Program Files are
removed.
This behavior started after I added the following section of markup:
<!--
Exit the installation if the product is already installed,
or if a newer version is installed.
-->
<Condition Message= "A newer version of [ProductName] is already installed.
Exiting installation.">
<![CDATA[Installed OR NOT NEWER_VERSION_FOUND]]>
</Condition>
<!--
Define the upgrade conditions.
Remove older version on install.
Check to make sure a newer version isn't already installed.
-->
<Upgrade Id="$(var.UpgradeCode)">
<UpgradeVersion Property="OLD_VERSION_FOUND"
Maximum="$(var.ProductVersion)" IncludeMaximum="no" OnlyDetect="no"
IgnoreRemoveFailure="yes" MigrateFeatures="yes" />
<UpgradeVersion Property="NEWER_VERSION_FOUND"
Minimum="$(var.ProductVersion)" IncludeMinimum="no" OnlyDetect="yes" />
</Upgrade>
<!--Put the upgrade check in the InstallExecute Sequence-->
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallFinalize" />
</InstallExecuteSequence>
There is probably something I'm doing wrong in there. The uninstall completes
with no error. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
