releases not installing new vesion?
I used the same project as the vesion before and changed the vesion number in general information. I then added the new files into the files and folders, and made sure the path to the new files is correct, Added a majour upgrade into "Upgades" and created a new realse.
When i build the new release it creates a .exe and .msi. When i try and install the .msi it states "There is another vesion installed"?? If i install the setup.exe it over writes the app with the correct vesion in add/remove programs but doest upgrade any of the assembily files eg the .config.
Can anyone help?

Your major upgrade wasn't authored correctly. You will want to read up on Major Upgrades. Also, you will find File Versioning Rules useful.
