Hi, I'm using WIX v3, and I've built an installer that installs an exe file,
using modules,
now I'm trying to test the major upgrade feature, by replacing the exe file
with another
one and adding a txt to the installed folder.
I tried first installing a 1 KB dummy exe and replacing it with the real exe
file, and
it worked fine.
However when I tried doing it the opposite way, ie. installing the real exe
and
attempting to "upgrade" it to the dummy file, the installation just simply
wouldn't
install anything, not even the shortcuts. But when I target the install path
to something
different, the installation worked fine again.
This is rather weird and I have no idea why this is happening, since the
only difference
between the two approaches is changing the source files in the
<File....../>.
Does anyone know what could be the problem here? I can post my code if
needed.
Thank you.
