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.

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?
