I would like to uninstall an app which is in different location while installing another app with the same name. BUt the default installation directory is different for new app.

I tried couple of things but nothing is working

 <Property Id="PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED" Secure="yes" />
 <Upgrade Id="YOUR_GUID">  
 <UpgradeVersion
  Minimum="1.0.0.0" Maximum="99.0.0.0"
  Property="PREVIOUSVERSIONSINSTALLED"
  IncludeMinimum="yes" IncludeMaximum="no" />
</Upgrade>

New app wix code

  <Product Id="*" Name="Hector PC" Language="1033" Version="1.0.0.0" Manufacturer="Hector Technologies" UpgradeCode="303D1BF2-E4C1-44A3-9BBC-85D61CE0F7B6">

Old app in different location which I need to uninstall GUID is

  {2EA86967-B3D3-4B2E-9DE9-28A595AF2E2E}

THis link gave good information but i am not able to succeed in uninstalling the first app

Generally you can use the major upgrade feature to uninstall any existing MSI-installation during your new product's own MSI installation. – Stein Åsmul Jul 31 '20 at 11:43
