You can prevent a dialog from appearing during patching by adding a condition of "not PATCH" in the appropriate place, depending on where its being shown from (another dialog or the InstallUISequence). That should take effect, even if you add the condition in the update (not original) MSI. There might be other ways too - I don't use the MSI UI myself.

Peter, I just tried this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";> <Patch AllowRemoval="yes" Manufacturer="Farrukh" DisplayName="elcoCAD Patch" Description="elcoCAD Patch" Classification="Update" OptimizePatchSizeForLargeFiles="yes" > <Media Id="5000" Cabinet="RTM.cab" > <PatchBaseline Id="RTM"/> </Media> <PatchFamilyRef Id="elcoCAD" /> <TargetProductCodes Replace="yes"> <TargetProductCode Id="{8AFE6DB7-4732-4BD5-A9D2-1CF2C6CC9C13}" /> </TargetProductCodes> </Patch> <Fragment> <PatchFamily Id="elcoCAD" Version='1.0.0.0' Supersede='yes'> <PropertyRef Id='ProductVersion'/> </PatchFamily> </Fragment> </Wix> and it worked. It changed the version that 4 digit version successfully. But only problem I faced is when I launched the msp file, it showed Customize Dialog (Repair, Reinstall, Uninstall) and I have to click on Repair but it did the job. i want to get rid of that Customize Dialog and wanted that this should do the job directly. Any ideas if I can skip any Dialogs during Patch installation? -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/Patch-to-update -version-of-installed-product-tp7579458p7579472.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
