installer - WiX major upgrade doesn't run when I remove a merge module from the project -


I have got a YX project in which the installation of Visual C ++ 2008 runtime components for x86 with a merged merge module Includes. / P>

Unfortunately MSI is a well-known issue with .msm with v4.5. To be more specific, .msm custom action takes <20> to complete SxSUninstallCA at uninstall.

Therefore, the long story short, I decided to remove .msm of the new version of the product, installed quietly with the VC + Component .exe file.

If I only change this thing (and product code, of course) then the installer does not detect the product already installed on the machine and does a normal installation, without first uninstalling the earlier version .

Any thoughts on what's going on here? Whether MSI has examined to check the upgrade code and product code, whether any product is renewed by anyone else already installed on the system?

Check if you have ALLUSERS assets fixed in both installers. I had the same problem with the merge module and he solved it.
