配置InstallShield LE删除使用Visual Studio安装项目构建的早期版本 [英] Configuring InstallShield LE to remove previous versions built using Visual Studio Setup Projects

问题描述

使用Visual Studio 2010，我想切换到使用InstallShield LE而不是Visual Studio安装项目.

Using Visual Studio 2010, I would like to switch over to using InstallShield LE instead of the Visual Studio Setup Project.

在安装项目中，存在一个选项RemovePreviousVersions，该选项非常适合制作一个安装程序，该安装程序在发布新版本时实质上会进行就地升级.

In the Setup Project, an option RemovePreviousVersions existed which was great for making an installer that would essentially do an in-place upgrade when a new version is released.

现在使用InstallShield LE，我已经更新了该版本并生成了一个新的ProductCode，但是运行安装程序后，仍然存在以前的版本.

Now with InstallShield LE, I've updated the version and generated a new ProductCode, but after running the installer, the previous version is still present.

我需要怎么做才能使InstallShield构建的项目可以删除由VS安装项目构建的先前版本?

What do I need to do so that the InstallShield-built project can remove the previous version which was built with the VS Setup Project?

推荐答案

您可以尝试以下操作:

• 使用 Orca 打开旧的MSI并从属性表中获取其UpgradeCode
• 在您的InstallShield LE项目中，转到解决方案资源管理器中的常规信息"
• 确保将升级代码"字段设置为您的旧MSI升级代码

• open your old MSI with Orca and get its UpgradeCode from Property table
• in your InstallShield LE project go to "General Information" in solution explorer
• make sure that the "Upgrade Code" field is set to your old MSI UpgradeCode

还应该确保ALLUSERS属性在两个版本中都具有相同的值(方法相同).您可以在此处阅读有关升级的更多信息: http://msdn. microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa369786(VS.85).aspx

You should also make sure that ALLUSERS property has the same value for both versions (it's the same approach). You can read more about upgrades here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa369786(VS.85).aspx
