Configuring Automatic Upgrade Item Settings

InstallShield 2025

Project: This information applies to the following project types:

•

Basic MSI

When you add an automatic upgrade item to your project, you must configure its automatic upgrade item settings. You can configure these settings when you click your new automatic upgrade item in the Prepare Setup For Upgrade Scenarios explorer of the Upgrades view.

In addition, you need to configure general upgrade settings that InstallShield will use to create your upgrade, depending on whether InstallShield determines that a major or a minor upgrade is necessary for your automatic upgrade item. You can configure these general settings on the tabs that are displayed when you click Upgrade Windows Installer Setup in the Prepare Setup For Upgrade Scenarios explorer of the Upgrades view:

•

Common tab

•

Advanced tab
