Preventing a Setup project from repairing

G

Guest

I'm using Application Block Updater for a Window forms application, and a Setup Project to install the client the firts time.

After 3 upgrades, the first release is deleted by the updater. The issue is the the .MSI file tries to repair my application, thus making everything broken.

How can I prevent the installer from repairing the installed filed if they are removed by hand.

Sincerely

Sébastien to get MSI to not repair select the file in the setup project and
change Condition = NOT REINSTALL so that the file will not get reinstalled
on a repair and its Transitive = TRUE so that the condition is re-evaluated.

I believe that should solve your problem but if it does not, please respond
to this message and I will try to help out.
