❔ ✅ WiX: Ignore version numbers when overwriting files
I'm trying to have my WiX generated msi overwrite any and all files contained in the package, regardless of the file version itself.
I found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1917877/install-a-file-regardless-of-version-number-with-wix, but it doesn't feel right.

It’s been a minute, but I think you can set the REINSTALLMODE to “amus” and it will ignore the file version
I ended up just setting the file version because nothing else worked.
Looks like nothing has happened here. I will mark this as stale and this post will be archived until there is new activity.
