log show anything happening that takes a long time around where it calls
RemoveFiles?

As far as I know, a transform file is a file used during the patch-making

You can use the UpgradeVersion elements if you want (I do - I have different
error messages for same-version and new-version already installed). The key is
that the product id must change. What DavidW suggests (*) works nicely.

to get the Hash number for this version.
