Patches

This property page lists the patch files that Microsoft* Windows* Installer applies to the .msi package during distribution. Each patch will be applied in the order listed in the MSI Patches List.

Add
Click Add, browse to and select the patch file (.msp file or other MSI-based patch file) you want added to the MSI Patches List, then click OK to add it to the list. If the patch file is in the same directory as the .msi file, you can simply enter the filename in the MSI Patch File field rather than browsing to and selecting it. If you select the file, make sure that the resulting path is either a UNC path or mapped path that is common to all users.

Modify
Select a patch from the MSI Patches List, then click Modify to edit the location of the patch.

Delete
Select a patch from the MSI Patches List, then click Delete to remove it from the list.

Up-Arrow and Down-Arrow
Select a patch from the MSI Patches List, then click the up-arrow to move the patch up in the list or click the down-arrow to move it down in the list. The patches are applied in the order they are listed, from top to bottom.
