Why not include both logos in your new msi and install only one conditionally.

Subject: [WiX-users] If file exists, don't update another file Hi all, I have to do the following: if in the installation folder there is a specific file, eg file.txt, then a specific file, eg mylogo.jpg should _not_ be updated. The installer is doing always major upgrades. My question is: assuming that the request can be done by using a conditional component (not yet sure how, but this is another story) could I do that if in the installer I have: <RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallInitialize"/>? Or this won't work because the product is first completely removed and only then the new version installed, so basically the mylogo.jpg is gone as part of removing old products, so it won't be preserved, so the new one, the one from the package will be installed? If what I wrote above is correct, is there any other way to implement the above request (if in the installation folder there is a specific file, eg file.txt, then a specific file, eg mylogo.jpg should _not_ be updated) without changing the: <RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallInitialize"/>? (I'm not allowed to change the place of the removing old products) Thank you in advance, Mecoco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
