I have an install shield project that has gone through various versions, currently it is version 3.7. There is a component in the project that contains four vdb files, which are set to always overwrite. When installing the software on a fresh machine it works fine. The four files are copied in to the target dir. If I perform an upgrade on a previous version say 3.6 the files are ignored and the contents of the dir are unchanged (previously contained 2 files).

I have also set the Reinstallmode to amus.

Are there any other methods of ensuring that the files are overwritten / component deployed?

Thank you

  • It would be helpful to see the install log, and the relevant row from the component table. – thekbb Nov 01 '12 at 22:40
  • is overwrite option enabled at the components folder level or at the file level? check that. – anand Nov 23 '12 at 07:18
