Hello,
What's the best way to force the update of unversioned files?
I have a set of XML files that have to be updated with any product upgrade, even if the user modified some of them after the previous installation/upgrade. The MSI file versioning rules (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368599(v=vs.85).aspx) prevent the update of the modified files in such cases. As far as I understand, using 'Companion Files' (i.e. linking those unversioned XML files to the versions of the exes/dlls) would be the way to go, but I can't find the support for that feature in Wix#.
Any advice please?
Thanks.
