Subject: [WiX-users] Does an installer database know if it's upgraded?
The installer adds some applications to the Windows Firewall with the
acceptance of the administrator. Doing an upgrade would preserve the
Firewall settings and although I have some solutions in mind, none of them
are direct. It would help if the old version would know that is being
upgraded and thus avoid removing the Windows Firewall settings. For
instance, the new installer checks for the existance of EXISTINGPRODUCTS
property that is set by UpgradeVersion element.
<UpgradeVersion Maximum="$(var.PRODUCTVER).0" IncludeMaximum="no"
Minimum="3.1.3.0" IncludeMinimum="yes"
Property="EXISTINGPRODUCTS" MigrateFeatures="yes" OnlyDetect="no"/>
Do we have a property that tells the old version that is being upgraded?
