Thank you for the clarification. I have made progress and here is an updated scenario, I am not sure why the update is not auto-installing but instead waiting for me to click Install (at step 2)
===== Product ID = * Product UpgradeCode = 029B...BD97 Bootstrapper UpgradeCode = f031...56b3 ===== 1) Install Bootstrapper v1.0.1 2) Run Add/Remove Programs > Change, Launches v1.0.1 UI, Click Update Update downloads, runs, appears to install and close the original UI (v1.0.1) and opens the new UI (v1.0.2) UI shows new version and shows as "Not Installed" with the Install option enabled. ===== This bundle is being run by a related bundle as type 'Update'. DetectBegin: Not Installed Detected package: MyApp, state: Absent DetectComplete: DetectedAbsent ===== ***a) Why does it not Auto Install? It is triggered by 'Update' yet waits for me to click Install.*** 3) Click Install: Installs MyApp v1.0.2 is installed successfully v1.0.1 ui is opened again automatically (this time appears to be hidden) 4) v1.0.2 UI shows as Complete. Add/Remove programs shows new v1.0.2 is installed. ===== Thanks, -dirt On 2013-10-10 19:08, Phill Hogland wrote: > For MajorUpgrade behavior you must change both the Product ID and the > version.
