You should not change the guid when moving between features. You would change it if you moved the component to another directory, which is what you might be thinking of.
If you rearrange the feature-component tree then you can only use major upgrades. You won't be able to create a small or minor update. -----Original Message----- From: Martin Kulov [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 09 June 2011 15:30 To: wix-users Subject: [WiX-users] moving component to another feature Hi, I have one component that I need to move from one feature to another. Should I change the component GUID in order to prevent orphaned files? <Directory Id="INSTALLLOCATION" Name="$(var.ProductName)"> <Component Id="Comp1" Guid="{SOME-GUID}"> <File Id="FL1" KeyPath="yes" Source="command.bat" /> </Component> </Directory> <Feature Id='F1' Title="my feature" Level="110" AllowAdvertise="no" ConfigurableDirectory="INSTALLLOCATION" > <ComponentRef Id="Comp1" /> </Feature> Thanks, Martin Kulov http://www.kulov.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
