1. If a Bundle fails to install everything in the chain, it should rollback and not have anything left in ARP. 2. If you want it to block, your BA would need to do that. If you're using wixstdba, I think it automatically blocks downgrades. IIRC, it doesn't block same versions because that's not a

The general expectation is that when you make a new build, you'll increment the version. The WiX toolset's Bundle increments based on the date (we don't do multiple builds in the same day). You could write a custom BA to allow "same version upgrades". Burn engine doesn't have support for that yet

Incrementing Version for every single bundle is going to be problematic. Everyone will have to track and increment this Version or suffer duplicate entries in "Programs and Features". If I build and install my bundle (with version=1.0.0), then build and install my bundle again (with version=1.0.0)
