Are the config files being included in the patch? Patchwiz log should tell you 
what exactly what it is choosing to include.

If so it's overwriting them with what it thinks are newer files which is what I 
suspect is the case as Windows Installer won't overwrite updated files with 
older ones in my experience.

Subject: [WiX-users] Ignoring config files with patch

Hi,

 

I'm creating a patch following
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/patch_building.htm. It seems,
that the config files get changed back. I tried PatchIgnore on the
config file in the installer. But from the documentation is seems that
it just helps to prevent changes from one installer to the other going
into the patch. And does this mean, I have to recreate the installers? 

Thanks,

  Christoph
