It is, if there aren't "orphaned" products left behind. First step: what does the verbose log from the upgrade say?

Subject: [WiX-users] Upgrade msi with removed components Hello wix users, a quick question! If i create my msi with a major version upgrade (assume i'm doing everything correctly, i.e change ProductCode, PackageCode, leave Upgradecode intact, change version number, add <RemoveExistingProducts After="InstallFinalize"/> in InstallExecuteSequence), and leave the Component Guids the same, and only remove one Component with a file Foo.txt, isn't it supposed to be removed from the install location? or does it stay orphaned?
