The upgradecode values need to be identical AND the new MSI needs
entries in the Upgrade table, however you populated that with your
WiX. The codes can be identical but without entries in the Upgrade

The upgrade is an uninstall of the old product, using the VS setup, so
if it's true that the VS setup is removing files when it uninstalls
then there really isn't much you can do. That uninstall will do what
it does, and it looks like it makes no differentiation between being

What version of WiX were you using? Was the Bundle/@UpgradeCode the same
between the two bundles? What does the log file look like when just starting
the uninstall? Was your upgrade a full upgrade, or did you do a patch bundle?

Hi Rob,
Thanks for the comment. I understand that I'd need to manage all feature
states, but isn't that precisely why I'd need to know whether each feature
should be installed by default or not? Surely without knowing INSTALLLEVEL,
I must assume that all features should by default be installed, ie
I have been able to remove the old MSI but as part of the uninstall for the
original MSI, some data stored in ProgramData is removed, as well as some
data files that are stored in the actual Applications folder.
The goal was to try to make the upgrade process as smooth as possible. I

When you manage feature states, you need to manage all feature states. Thus the
defaults aren't terribly relevant, thus INSTALLLEVEL can for all intents and
purposes be ignored.

Your new MSI should be able to remove the old MSI if you get the upgrade
information correct. That will use REmoveExistingProducts. Not clear why you
want to avoid that.

Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if it is possible to have an existing product that was
installed using a Visual Studio Setup Project be migrated so that the MSI
is part of a Burn bundle and the upgrade process does not involve
RemoveExistingProducts.
The new Burn bundle contains many of the same
The approach that I used, (some time ago before I switched to using a mba),
is (as I recall)
1) Define a string variable in your Bundle and make it overridable-'yes'.
2) In the localization file define a sting which uses that string variable.

Hello,
Thanks for the response.
I use CDDATA in both conditions, I should have pasted that in the sample I
pasted... I apologize for being unclear. As for the compiler returning the
error, it was a type-o on my part.
My issue is that I can't find the correct condition to Identify Server 2008
the wxs file is an xml file, is yours valid xml?
why not use CDATA on the second condition also?

Hello Everyone,
I thought this would be a trivial condition, but I can't seem to find a
winning combination.
I have a text control that is located in my WelcomeDlg, I want to display a
message to the user when the installation is being ran on Server 2008 or
Server 2012. In all other cases
Huh. So, with the upgrade codes being identical, shouldn't it be able to
find and install over the old product? Why would it be failing in that case?

Dear Wix Users,
