The recipe for a minor upgrade by reinstalling the product is to rebuild the MSI file with the higher versioned code files, change its PackageCode, increment its ProductVersion, and install with msiexec /I <new msi file> REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus. If you broke the rule "don't delete a component" that's something that could cause a problem too.

They are version 3.0 and need to be replaced by the 3.1 version. If I uninstall the 3.0 version then install the 3.1 version the correct files are put out there. If I delete these two files, then do the upgrade the correct files are put out there. That tells me that they are included in the msi, so why don't they get upgraded? I'm not sure of where to start looking to solve this, or what could possibly cause this to happen. Any help would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
