Hi,

I am facing a issue while reinstalling MSI. The problem is, when i initially install the MSI, my msi file is copied from my installation directory to "SYSROOT/Installer" folder and is also renamed. The system then installs the MSI from this location. Now, when i try to re-install my MSI again on top of the previous installation system, instead of picking the latest MSI from my installation directory, does a re-instalation using the MSI from "SYSROOT/Installer" folder. So, the latest files are not updated. I have tried setting the property "Re-cache local copy of Installation" in Administrator Options field, but still there is no change.
I need that instead of using the previous MSI, latest MSI should be used for reinstallation.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Akhilesh Aggarwal
