Since I started this thread an engineer I work with suggested I use a new

Personally, I wouldn't use the word "robust" in that sentence. The word
"flexible" may be appropriate but not "robust". The alternative
installation engines available on the Windows platform are not more
"robust".

Such things outside MSDN specs are very risky! If anyhow possible try to
avoid them. E.g. we got issues (afair FindRelatedProducts) as our version
number was 4.451.. when migrating to Major 5. We then needed to use
think it was 5.195.. instead of 5.1...
And IMHO 255.255.655

We use the Inno installer for a different product and it has no problem with
this version numbering system, it however has file version and product version
fields...
The file version field is constrained but the product version field is not...
