How to Set the UpgradeCode

I tried your Free version for the first time today and I like it. I will probably buy the professional. I only had one issue with the build - how do I set the upgrade code so that our apps installed previously via MSI built by Visual Studio Installer are upgraded - we don't want both versions to exist. In most MSI installer tools you can set the Upgrade Code to a specific GUID.

Edit:

I figured it out. I was able to edit the .aip file in notepad and change the UpgradeCode. Nice product, simple to use....had a disastrous time trying to make InstallShield Limited Edition build an MSI that worked. This is much nicer.

Thanks!
Daniel

Re: How to Set the UpgradeCode

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.

You can also change the upgrade code of your installation project from "Product Details page -> Product IDs tab".

If you have any questions let us know.

All the best,
Daniel
