visual studio 2008 - msi Installer to run twice -


I have a program that gets installed through an MSI. MSI was created using a VS2008 deployment project and after completion of the install, there is a custom action to run the program.

Once the MSI is being run, I can just update the version number, prepare a new product code and MSI can run on the same PC again. However, what I want to be able to run an MSI for the second time on the same PC (without repairing the MSI) and re-installing the software again (even if anything has changed) is not there. Is this possible?

You can register productive actions, register user action, publishing, action, and PublishFeatures from the InstallExecuteSequence table Removing will not be registered in the MSI database of application system and you can install it and start it again as if it was first installed.
