Setup program to update?

[trant]

I have just started using a setup project for my program to install it on to
my user's machines.

using online tutorials it was easy to do.

but one thing I cannot figure out is, when I make little changes to the
program and make a new setup to distribute it, it always asks users to
uninstall their previous version then install this new one. is it possible to
set this up so my updates are treated as updates instead of new products? or
is there some other trick to distributing updates?

Hello,

If you look at the properties of the Setup project you will find the
property RemovePreviousVersion. Set this to true and it will uninstall the
previous version of your program.

NB! Now you can't go back!

Only true if this is true:

The UpgradeCode must be the same for both versions; the ProductCode must be
different.
