If you want to "transform" an MSI that's already installed then generate a patch to do it. Transforms must be applied at the same time the MSI is installed. Phil

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Transform not working I used Orca to create the transform and save the new transformed MSI. It was when I tried to run that newly saved transform. The main installer was already installed and when I uninstalled it, it worked as it should. Is this a limitation of the transforms that they cannot be run on an MSI that is already installed? -----Original Message----- From: Peter Shirtcliffe [mailto:pshirtcli...@sdl.com] Sent: 09 October 2012 12:14 To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Transform not working What command line did you use to install ? Does a verbose log mention the transform that's being applied ? -----Original Message----- From: Natalie Carr [mailto:natalie.c...@measuresoft.com] Sent: 09 October 2012 11:34 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Transform not working Hi I am having trouble with my transforms, I have my main installer but when I transform it, it stays the exact same. I opened the transformed msi in Orca and it showed all my changes but when it is run I get the main installer and not my transformed one. Anyone know what would cause this to occur?
