I guess that this is a common newbie error, I'm new to Wix too and I made the
same mistake a few days ago. I costed me about an hour to figure it out and my
template for new scripts now includes defines for the UpgradeCode and some other
values:
<!-- The upgrade code (must be the same for <Product UpgradeCode /> and <Upgrade
Id />
The upgrade code must not be changed during the life cycle of the product!
Otherwise the Installer will add an additional entry into Add/Remove Software
-->
<?define UpgradeCode="YOUR-GUID-HERE"?>
...
and
<Product Id="$(var.ProductCode)"
Name="$(var.ProductName)"
Language="$(var.ProductLanguage)"
Version="$(var.ProductVersion)"
Manufacturer="$(var.Manufacturer)"
UpgradeCode="$(var.UpgradeCode)">
...
<Upgrade Id="$(var.UpgradeCode)">
...
That way I hopefully don't make the same mistake twice (building an installer is
not really my every day business)
BTW: Is there anything like a tutorial about building Managed Custom Actions
with the DTF? Or some real life examples?

Ingo
