Patch/Rollback Behavior

[R.Scott]

I'm evaluating Advanced Installer for use with one of our products...

Product as installed has multiple sub-directories and > 500 .cfm files
It appears that I can build a "major" release with all code & directories. Call it V 1.0.00 for simplicity

We release service packs containing 10 to 15 files on occasion - some are updates to existing files, others are new.
Call the first one V 1.0.01, second V 1.0.02, ...

We need the ability to rollback the latest service pack / release to the previous version. If we install V 1.0.05 and discover something isn't right,
we'd like to uninstall V 1.0.05 and the installed ( remaining ) code base would be at the V 1.0.04 version. Ideally we would not have to do anything other
than the uninstall of the latest release, and no re-installs of previous service packs. The uninstall would have to delete "new" files contained in the service pack and restore files that were overwritten in that particular release.

Is this functionality present in the Professional edition and I'm just not familiar enough with the product?
Thanks!

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

Unfortunately, we don't have a predefined support for this.

All the best,

Thanks for the reply...

So, I would need to build 2 releases for each product update?

#1 Would be the new code files V1.0.05 which would A) overwrite existing files and/or
B) install brand new files as needed

#2 would be a rollback release V1.0.05_Rollback which would #1 overwrite V1.0.05's A) files with their last OK version and
#2 have an additional action of deleting the brand new files --> from B)

Hello,

No, I'm afraid you cannot achieve a rollback to the previous installation version behavior.

All the best,
