Hi,

Just install it.

If you want to do any modification then create a tranform file that and apply the upgrade logic as well.

That will remove your old MSI and install new version of MSI.

Hi rachuri,

if the new app is a MSI create a transform and add the upgrde code of already installed MSI in the upgrade table.also don't forgot to sequence the RemoveExsistingProducts standard action appropriately in the InstallExecuteSequence.
if the new file is a EXE then take setup capture and apply the upgrade logic same as describe above.

regards,

if the new file is a EXE...unless that EXE extracts and executes an MSI, of course!
