Hi Bob,

ALLUSERS property is not set within the .msi file InstallShield generates, 
which means there was a per-user installation (there is something like 
ApplicationUsers property with the value ALLUSERS). My .msi uses ALLUSERS with 
a value of 1 (so per-machine install). I removed ALLUSERS property from my .msi.

Also, I switched for a major upgrade now (updated Product & UpgradeCode GUIDs 
and Version), here is the Upgrade sequence:

<Upgrade Id="C466B4D2-CFF9-4880-9910-D95248AAABEB">
    <UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect="no" Property="PREVFOUND" Maximum="1.0.1" 
IncludeMaximim="no"/>
</Upgrade>
<Upgrade Id="D1EF72C4-8A32-4526-9F7F-396EC5DAC5C3">
    <UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect="yes" Property="NEWERFOUND" Minimum="2.0.0" 
IncludeMinimum="yes"/>
</Upgrade>

The first Upgrade refers to previous InstallShield package out there, second is 
for current version.

Well, I had no success yet.

Dacian

  That
would remove my previous installation, right? I'm not sure I want that
since the user might have configured the product (registry keys, config
files, etc.) and I don't want that to be removed. I just want an
upgrade of what's out there.

  

  




Unless you kept all your GUIDs and IDs the same, you need to do a major
upgrade to get to a "clean slate" install.




  
  On
top of that, it still doesn't look like the previous installation was
detected (the PREVFOUND property doesn't have a GUID attached to it and
no upgarde is proposed, just normal install).

  

  




The most common reason is that you're trying to mix and match values of
ALLUSERS. MSI doesn't support a per-user install upgrading a
per-machine install (or vice versa).
