Make an SMALL UPGRADE
Hello,
I have a problem with my upgrade.
I create a Basic MSI.
In "Installation Information" -> "General Information" -> "Product Properties"
I have :
Version : 2.00
Product Code : {A54BF968-90A2-4441-A8CD-CF7B183DF227}
Upgrade code : {EEB48298-0375-4AFC-9E5C-FED64C5501DF}
In option "Media" -> "Releases", I modify :
In tab "Build"
Compression : Compressed
In tab "Setup.exe"
"Setup Luncher" : no
When I install my MSI. I have no problem.
After, I modify :
Version : 2.00 in "Installation Information" -> "General Information" -> "Product Properties"
And I modify my principal executable which is in my components
I build my version...
I execute my new MSI where I installed version 2.00
and i have an message "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel."
Who have a solution please ?
Just a clarification, When in
In option "Media" -> "Releases", I modify, In tab "Setup.exe" I put
"Setup Luncher" : Yes (non MSI engine included)
THE UPDATING WORKS....but i haven't my "MyProject.MSI" but a Setupe.exe
Thanks for you answer.

The help topic Updating Applications > Creating Minor Upgrades explains why setup.exe is used (the reason is the same for small updates and minor upgrades) and how to deploy such an upgrade without setup.exe.
