I am starting to use setup builder and have made several installs with incrementing version numbers.
It looks as if it is working correctly but when I go into Add/remove programs or Programs/Features I find I have multple instances of the install. How do I stop getting these multiple installs as there should only be the latest?
Thanks

Hello,

You have to use the same Product GUID in this case.

Does this help?

Thanks,
The PruductGuid & UpgradeGuid have to be the same all the time for all versions of the software. I must have misunderstood.

Hi David,

But there might come a time when it is wise (or makes sense) to change the Product GUID. For example, in our own product line. SetupBuilder 5.x, SetupBuilder 6.x and SetupBuilder 7.x can all co-exist on the same machine. So we have three Product GUIDs that uniquely identify the product.
