As long as the previous version have an UpgradeCode guid then just author the 
different guids in the Upgrade table of the new msi's and follow the rules for 
authoring major upgrades.

Subject: [WiX-users] Uninstall previous version of tool


Hi All.

Could anyone please help me. I am writing new installer for our tool .
During Installation I need to remove previous versions of our tool. The
problem is that each version has different GUID , Is there any special
action in MSI that I can use ? I mean is there any table that I can put all
5 different GUIDs and MSI will remove them before installation of my version
if one of the old versions installed ?

 If no , can anyone suggest solution of this problem ?


 Thanks.
