Neither of the versions have ALLUSERS set at all, because I want them to be per-user. As I explained I worded that poorly. The installer with ALLUSERS=2 was for another product altogether, unrelated to this one.
Here's what I'm doing: 1. Build and install program with version 1.0.0.0 and ProductCode 'a'. 2. Change version to 1.0.0.1 and ProductCode to 'b', and install again. At this point there are two entries in Add/Remove Programs, one for 1.0.0.0 and one for 1.0.0.1, despite all my efforts to make the latter remove the former. Bear in mind these installers are IDENTICAL except for those two tiny changes.
