Deleting Files
Hi
I have created an installation that installs a program I have created with several folders and files. I have recently improved my program and moved a lot of the files into new folders. So when a user installs the newer version they will have two copies of the same file in two locations.
What I want to know is there a way to delete the old files that are in the old locations, when they install the new program.
Cheers
Rick

Sounds like you need to do a major upgrade.
