Hello everyone, I'm wondering if it is possible to have an existing product that was installed using a Visual Studio Setup Project be migrated so that the MSI is part of a Burn bundle and the upgrade process does not involve RemoveExistingProducts.
The new Burn bundle contains many of the same files as the original, but quite a few have changes, as well as adding additional folders and registry entries not included in the old install, and installing additional packages as part of the bundle. I've read so much online about UpgradeCode and Upgrade elements and the vast majority of the examples refer to RemoveExistingProducts. Are there any realistic options for an approach similar to the above? It would be vastly preferable to just add to the existing files as there is user specific data associated with existing installs. I've tried having the MSI use the original UpgradeCode, as well as using it in the Burn bundle itself to no avail. -- View this message in context: http://windows-installer-xml-wix-toolset.687559.n2.nabble.com/UpgradeCode-question-Moving-from-VS-Setup-Project-to-WiX-and-Burn-tp7595846.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?
