Remove previously installed version
Hi,
I asked this question in 2010 version, and no luck to find an appropriate answer in here: http://community.flexerasoftware.com/showthread.php?t=196549
This is a summary to my problem:
1- I installed my app built with installshield 2011, lets call it version X.
2- I want to install another version of my app on the same machine, this version my be newer or older of the currently installed version, lets call it version Y.
3-I want to completely uninstalll version X When version Y starts installing.
I tried all available options i know such as put uninstall code in "OnBegin" event, use major upgrade..., and i can't solve this issue.
Is there any idea, suggestion ...
Thanks.

I tried this solution,
it does not provide any help, ie: nothing happened and the installer does not remove any thing,
any another option?
