I've gotten a little further. Now the pyro call is complaining that it cannot find a bunch of files, but it is looking in the folder location that the original (1.0) MSI would have gotten its source files from, and not where the files exist on the machine that I am trying to generate the patch on.
Is there a way to change the wixpdb file OR override the base folder that it looks under? I have the files I need synced up in a well-known good location that match what was in the original installer.

I think your problem is unrelated to pure-wix patching, component groups, or multiple cabs; but related to the fact that you're removing a file. But first: Component groups have components, not files. Did you remove a file from a component, or did you remove a component from a component group? -- Nicolás ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
