I have created a Firefox msi and when I push it out to my network clients it doesn't seem to upgrade the existing version in "Programs and Features". Is there a switch I can add to manually remove a previous version or upgrade? If i remove the previous version in "Programs and Features" there is still the latest version in "Programs and Features", the previous version uninstalls the executable but leaves the Mozilla folder with some files until I also remove the latest version with "Programs and Features". Basically if I install Firefox 29 on the client, then install Firefox 30 via MSI, "Programs and Features" shows both versions installed, but both versions share the same folder location and executable?

Thanks, John

HI tallonjf, There is no msi generated by Mozilla. This will have to to do with the installation configuration. Does it overwrite? Does it not? Overwritting will remove all existing profiles. However updating may not, but this is not something that I am an expert in. You can also try the enterprise mailing list that works with 24esr.

This may also be helpful, frontmotion does do this http://www.frontmotion.com/Firefox/index.htm
