In WiX v2, you should be able to create patches using the PatchCreation
element. The process is documented in the chm. It will build you a PCP file
which you then can to push through a set of Windows Installer tools.
WiX v3 has made patch creation a more native part of the process and that
process is documented in the latest chm file about the Patch element.

I am a little behind on keeping up with the latest updates, but am currently
using WiX 2.0.3719.

Subject: [WiX-users] Doing QFEs With WiX
We currently have a product which installs, literally, thousands of files
(source and binaries) that define applications for creating operating systems
using Windows Embedded CE. The installer is defined in WiX. But we would like
to release updates to the files on a regular basis, like what Microsoft does
monthly using QFEs for Windows Embedded CE. Is there some way to define a
QFE-like mechanism by using WiX? Even if there isn't, are there some
guidelines online somewhere that define how ones goes about creating a QFE and
how the original installer should be structured to allow for easy installation
of QFEs?
Thanks,
Jim Williams
