2. Select the type of installation from the button menu:
Force Reinstall
Normally, if an application is installed and you try to install it again, Windows
Installer prompts you to remove it. This option uses command lines to bypass
the uninstall. Existing resources are replaced, and new resources are laid down.
(The command line msiexec.exe /FAMSUV [MSIFILENAME] is used.
See Command Line Options in the Windows Installer SDK Help.)
Uninstall --> Install
If the application is already installed, this option first uninstalls it, then installs.
Run
Runs the installation normally. If the application is already installed, you are
prompted to uninstall it.
Other command lines
If you added command lines to the Command Line page, they also appear. To
avoid having to select from the button menu, press Ctrl+R to run with no
command line.
3. If you are working in a .WSI that contains multiple releases, you are prompted to
select one.
The installation is compiled and run.
Note
If you change the installation and then run it, but the change is not apparent, close the
installation. Reopen it and compile it, and then run it again.
Running a transform or merge module
You cannot run a transform or a merge module by itself. It can only be run in
conjunction with an .MSI.
To run a transform or merge module, run the base .MSI from the command line with the
appropriate command-line options, which are documented in the Windows Installer SDK
Help.
