You can remove the old version from the GPO more-or-less immediately, as far as I know. The what-upgrades-what information is kept in the MSI. However, many MSI packages require the original install source to be present during installation maintenance, including uninstalls. Since upgrades are often done as "uninstall old, install new", this means you may need to have have the MSI source around for the upgrade to work. Thus I generally try to keep the old MSI source around until I'm reasonably confident that any old versions have upgraded. YMMV. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
