Hi,
I want to add an extra dialog (a simple one ) in the installer i have the
following:
Main.wxs describing the directory structure
MyInstallDirDlg-some text modified
MyWixUI_InstallDir
This is what i did :
I copied the contents of InstallDirDlg and formed a new .wxs
MyInstallDirPreferDlg.wxs

As you found, the Windows Installer does not support cross scope upgrades.
You need to remove the per-user MSIs via some other mechanism first. Not

OLD_VERSION_FOUND is not standard property, so my guess is that it's set via a
