I added a new "Project Setup" from setup and deployment. I choose "true" for RemovePreviousVersions. I built the solution and installed my app. I then changed the ProductCode to the UpgradeCode and built the solution again and installed again. but when I went to add/remove programs (in the control panel) I had to versions of my app installed. What do I do so the program will delete previous installations when upgrading?

Which language and setup tool are you using?
I am using vb.net (visual studio 2008) and the deployment is from the VS, used as posted above.
dont change the name of your project !
and make sure your application is named correctly :)
Change the version number in the property of the setup project and RemovePreviousVersions. Then it works fine.
Hey Blacknight,
Did the above work for you?

nope. it didn't erase the previous version. When I went to the control panel > add/remove programs there were still two versions of my program.
