small update to update a previous version but should not uninstall
I'm creating a small update, the version would change in the build section, something like this 6.00.100 to 6.00.101. I just update the package code and things work.
But my requirement is that, I don't want to uninstall while doing a small update. I would like to just overwrite the files and request for a reboot.
My package includes a driver so small update uninstalls and then re-installs. The re-installation doesn't succeed because the driver is marked for un-installation which comes into effect during a reboot. So the re-installation goes without installing. Please give me some other views.
Thank you
