For anyone interested what I was able to do was create a custom action to set the ALLUSERS property to 1 and schedule it after FindRelatedProducts. Doing this allowed the old version to be located as a per user install then switch the new install to be per machine.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to debug upgrade problem I didn't see it before but FindRelatedProducts: current install is per-user. Related install for product '{C1BAE517-464C-4B99-BE0A-660C8210DE33}' is per-machine. So now my question becomes - Is there a way to perform a major upgrade on an install that was previously per-user to per-machine? Background: The old installer required admin privileges, wrote to the Program Files folder but did not set the ALLUSERS property. Now I want to correct this during a major upgrade but I'm not sure how.
