AFAIK, you can't. I've heard of CustomActions existing to flip the ALLUSERS
property if they determine the previous install didn't match the current
install. Sounds busted but I haven't personally investigated such issues.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] per-user vs per-machine
A little more detail...
In the previous version of my install ALLUSERS was set to 2 to allow the
computer to install as per-machine if the user was an admin and per-user if the
user was not.
Now the product has changed to install strictly as per-user. When
FindRelatedProducts is run it detects the previous version but also sees that
the previous version was installed as per-machine so it does not set my upgrade
property.
So in the end the major upgrade does not occur and I have both copies (previous
version and new version) installed.
Any suggestions on how to get a per-user install to do a major upgrade over a
per-machine install?

Can a per-user install be told to upgrade over a per-machine install if the
user is the same administrator for both?
Is there any way to tell a per-user install to do a major upgrade over a
per-machine install? Ie: uninstall the per-machine install and change it to a
per-user.
