Thanks for the reply. I tried few different tweeks to my wix installer
and the patch installer installs all the components that are missing for
a full installation on a system that has only typical installation.

When I uninstall only the patch, it only removes/updates the component
related to the patch and leave the system with full installation
although it is meant to have typical/limited installation.

I suspect the problem lies in configuration of wix elements such as
file, component or feature or something else. Below are some of my code
snippets

1)Declare component
<ComponentGroup Id=" SERVERREG " Directory="INSTALLFOLDER">
                <Component Id="alxWeb" Guid="{}">
                        <File Id="alxAnalyser"
Source="$(var.SOURCELOCATION)\alxAnalyser.exe"  KeyPath="yes" />
                </Component>
</ComponentGroup>

2) Included in feature
<Feature Id="SERVER_COMPONENTS" Title="App Server"  Level="10"
Description="">
                <!--<Application Server>-->
                <ComponentGroupRef Id="SERVERREG"/>

</Feature>

3) Publish feature
On click of typical installation button in wix, I have 
<Publish Event="AddLocal" Value=" SERVER_COMPONENTS "
Order="1">1</Publish>

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks

The latter behaviour is automatic, only installed features are patched.

Subject: [WiX-users] Custom installation in Wix Patch

In the wix major upgrade, I have a set of features and the end user has
the
option to install either typical, custom or complete features.

 

In case of wix patch release, is it possible to give the user the same
option
of typical, custom or complete installation type.

 

Else during the deployment can wix patch detect which features to be
deployed
based on the installation done in a system. i.e if a system is installed
with
typical installation then the wix patch update only those components
that
belong to typical installation. and if a system has a custom
installation
with only feature X then the patch update should update only those
components
that belong to feature X.

 

Thanks
