I'm no expert, but I do know that Windows Installer doesn't seem to use the 4th digit in versions for much, so is it possible that the fact you only changed it is simply confusing the matter? (I.e., violating expectations somehow so the behaviour isn't right.)

When I apply one patch, and then go to //Control Panel/Programs/Program and Features/Installed Updates, it looks something like this, and it's correct: My Program Hotfix for my program MyProgram a.b.c.d MyCompany InstalledDate1 However, if I apply a second (different) patch, with version number a.b.c.e, the "Installed Updates" screen now look like this: My Program (2) Hotfix for my program MyProgram a.b.c.e MyCompany InstalledDate1 Hotfix for my program MyProgram a.b.c.e MyCompany InstalledDate2 Note that both lines now say "a.b.c.e", when the first line should remain "a.b.c.d". Any idea what causes this? I'm using Wix 3.5. Thanks!
