Re: [WiX-users] Two Entries in Add or Remove Programs
I've encountered a double ARP entry with one of my installers a couple of months ago. As far as I remember only private build part of product version was changed what made the new installer act like a small update instead of a major upgrade (MSI only uses the first three parts of the version number). Changing third part instead of fourth fixed it at that time. Regards, Mike -- The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!

I guess that this is a common newbie error, I'm new to Wix too and I made the same mistake a few days ago. I costed me about an hour to figure it out and my template for new scripts now includes defines for the UpgradeCode and some other values: !-- The upgrade code (must be the same for Product UpgradeCode / and Upgrade Id / The upgrade code must not be changed during the life cycle of the product! Otherwise the Installer will add an additional entry into Add/Remove Software -- ?define UpgradeCode=YOUR-GUID-HERE? ... and Product Id=$(var.ProductCode) Name=$(var.ProductName) Language=$(var.ProductLanguage) Version=$(var.ProductVersion) Manufacturer=$(var.Manufacturer) UpgradeCode=$(var.UpgradeCode) ... Upgrade Id=$(var.UpgradeCode) ...

Re: [WiX-users] Two Entries in Add or Remove Programs
Get an MSI log to see what's going on. Look at all instances of FindRelatedProducts to see if it's detecting your older product. Why is REP after InstallFinalize? This is outside the audited actions, and one of the consequences is that if the uninstall of the older product fails it will attempt to roll back and reinstall, leaving you with two entries in ARP.

From Orca, here are the two entries in the Upgrade table for the Version 1.1
package:
UpgradeCode: {49AB249B-C143-412E-B138-6689533DC53A}

That location for REP is more efficient because the file replacement
rules are such that you have many files that aren't going to be
updated. If a lot are going to be updated anyway the efficiency
decreases. However it's not a safe location because of the rollback
issue. There is a similar efficient location (assuming efficiency is
valued more than safety ;=) ) which is directly before
InstallFinalize using [InstallExecute, RemovePreviousVersions,
InstallFinalize ], which is what the 3rd bullet is saying...
I have now moved RemovePreviousVersions to the position after InstallExecute
and before InstallFinalize.

[WiX-users] Two Entries in Add or Remove Programs
I have been testing the major upgrade procedure under WiX Version 3.0.5217.0 and Windows XP. I install version 1.0 of my application successfully. (It has the required Upgrade element.) To prepare for the next version of my application I increment the FILEVERSION, PRODUCTVERSION and FileVersion values in resource file from 1.0 to 1.1 and rebuild the executable. (WiX Edit reads the File Version--see below.) I go back to Wix Edit and change both the Product GUID and the Package GUID. The Upgrade ID GUID does not change. I rebuild the MSI setup package. Then I use this new package to install version 1.1 of my application. Version 1.1 of the program installs successfully but I am left with two entries in Control Panel Add or Remove Programs. One points to version 1.0; the other points to version 1.1. Upgrade Id=49AB249B-C143-412E-B138-6689533DC53A UpgradeVersion Property=OLDERVERSIONBEINGUPGRADED Maximum=!(bind.FileVersion.gssta_exe) IncludeMinimum=yes OnlyDetect=no IncludeMaximum=no Minimum=0.0.0.0 / UpgradeVersion Property=NEWERVERSIONDETECTED Minimum=!(bind.FileVersion.gssta_exe) OnlyDetect=yes IncludeMinimum=yes / /Upgrade InstallExecuteSequence RemoveExistingProducts After=InstallFinalize / /InstallExecuteSequence In the Add or Remove Programs table, if I select Remove for version 1.0 (after version 1.1 is installed) the application is not removed. (The table entry does go away.) If I select Remove for version 1.1, the application is removed. What can I do to ensure that only the latest version is shown in the Add or Remove Programs table? -- Charles -- The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
