Setup factory update setup package installer

[Ulrich]

The project file was not provided, so only generic recommendations could be given. Here is what I answered:

If you planned to allow that the user performs a re-install of the product with a newer version, overwriting the current release, then you most likely added a value in the registry holding the folder path where the product was deployed on the user's system. Also, you need to have a unique registry key for the uninstaller for all releases, or you will have multiple entries in the Programs and Features dialog, meaning that your unique key should not have the %ProductVer% in it.

In your setup, you would typically query the value you saved, and then set this as the %AppFolder%, instead of offering the Select Install Folder screen. Also, the Select Shortcut Folder most likely should not be shown in the case of an upgrade or reinstallation.

You made the same question in a support ticket, and it was entered there on the same day.

Hello,

We have created an installer that install the application. Now we have a requirement that same installer can be used to update the same application if it's already installed. So how can we achieve this feature in Setup factory.

Is there a way can have an option similar to Repair function , where we can reinstall the application or repair the application.

...
Thanks' N Regards,
