You can use the ProductCode property within the MSI. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/desktop/aa370854%28v=vs.85%29 .aspx
If by "package" you mean a bootstrapper or something else external to the MSI then you can open the MSI with InstEd or Orca and examine the Property table for the same property. -----Original Message----- From: Gary Ewan Park [mailto:ge...@gep13.co.uk] Sent: 21 February 2013 07:00 To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Using Product Id="*" Hello, I am still quite new to WiX, so please bear with me... I have implemented the following pattern: http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/major_upgrade.htm I allow for ease of upgrade. However, the installation package that I am trying to create needs to know about the ProductCode, in order to pass a parameter to the msiexec to make it uninstall the app. Since I am using Id=”*”, how can I find out the correct ProductCode (i.e. GUID), in order to pass as a parameter to msiexec.
