Hi Martin,

Did you change the Product ID and the version number? Both of those have to 
change to be called a major upgrade.

http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/major_upgrade.htm shows how to integrate 
a major upgrade into your .WXS file.

Subject: [WiX-users] majorupgrade when signing and merge


Hi,
 
I have an MSI installer built few months ago. It used to work fine during 
MajorUpgrade.
 
Today I signed the MSI with code certificate and also added one Merge Module. 
However now my MSI file gets installed as a new product and does not upgrade 
the existing installation as it used to do. As usual I only changed ProductCode 
and CurrentVersion properties.
 
Does digital signing or adding merge module makes the MSI look like a new 
product?
 What else could be the case?
 
Thanks,
Martin
