    Two versions same app

    Hi

    What do I need to do to enable an app to be installed twice on a pc? At
    present I get a message either asking to uninstall the previous version of
    the app or offering to modify or remove the app.

    Thanks

    Regards

    I am assuimg 2 different locations i.e directories... so you would do is
    ncopy or xcopy deployment, rather than use the MSI install..,in this way you
    can deploy the app to 2 locations... or

    you can write a post install script and run that from the MSI to make a
    copy..... or

    you can create 2 destination locations (directories) in the MSI installer
    and include all your applications files in both these directories...

    just curious to what situation demands 2 copies of the same app on same
    machine?
