Ah, looks like that was it-setting ALLUSERS to 1 forced the old version to uninstsall. Thanks!

I'm trying to make sure that I have a Wix installer that upgrades distributions authored with the previous Installshield version we used, but for some reason not all of the files work correctly. I've defined my Wix file with the same upgrade code, but with a new product and package codes, a new version, and different components. I also put these lines in: <Upgrade Id="59DF950B-4956-4E2F-936D-6FD9BCB91345"> <UpgradeVersion OnlyDetect="no" Property="PREVIOUSVERSIONFOUND" IncludeMinimum="yes" Minimum="1.0.0.0" IncludeMaximum="yes" Maximum="6.1.0.0" /> </Upgrade> <InstallExecuteSequence> <RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallFinalize">PREVIOUSVERSIONFOUND</RemoveExistingProducts> </InstallExecuteSequence> This should detect any previous product with the same upgrade code with versions between 1.0.0.0 and 6.1.0.0 and then remove them after installing my upgrade, correct? It turns out that the upgrade is installed, but when I uninstall the upgraded version, files are left behind. If I run the old installer again, it allows me to uninstall the old version, which removes the files. The log for the upgrade says that the PREVIOUSVERSIONFOUND condtion is false, which means that the old version was never detected. Is there something else I'm missing here? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
