Adding an Upgrade Item
InstallShield 2022 Express Edition
Project:This information applies to Express projects.
If you have released earlier versions of your product and you want to ensure that end users are able to upgrade to the current version without manually uninstalling the earlier version and then also installing the current version, use the Upgrade Paths view to indicate upgrade information.
To add an upgrade item:
| 1. | Open the Upgrade Paths view. |
| 2. | Right-click the Upgrade Paths explorer and click New Upgrade Path. The Open dialog box opens. |
| 3. | Do one of the following: |
| • | If the installation for the version that you want to upgrade exists on your system, browse to the .msi file or the .exe file and then click Open. InstallShield copies the upgrade code from that earlier version for your current project. |
| • | If the installation for the version that you want to upgrade is not on your system, click Cancel. |
InstallShield adds a new upgrade item.
