hello
how does it come that the <package> block is added to 
c$\WINNT\system32\wpkg.xml but that the software is finally not installed.

PDFCreator 0.8.0.1 is installed on our workstations.
I added the block below to update to 0.9.3.

<package
       id="pdfcreator"
       name="PDFCreator"
       revision="6"
       reboot="false"
       priority="0">
       <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="PDFCreator" />  
       <install cmd='msiexec /qn /norestart /i 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\zPDFCreator-0_9_3-AD_DeploymentPackage-WithoutToolbar.msi' 
/>
    <install cmd='regedit /s 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\HKLM_pdfcreator_command.reg' />
       <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qn /norestart /i 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\zPDFCreator-0_9_3-AD_DeploymentPackage-WithoutToolbar.msi' 
/>
    <upgrade cmd='regedit /s 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\HKLM_pdfcreator_command.reg' />
       <remove cmd='msiexec /qn /x 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\zPDFCreator-0_9_3-AD_DeploymentPackage-WithoutToolbar.msi' 
/>  
 </package>

It is copied into c$\WINNT\system32\wpkg.xml. i can see it :
<package id="pdfcreator" name="PDFCreator" revision="6" reboot="false" 
priority="0">
        <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="PDFCreator"/>
        <install cmd="msiexec /qn /norestart /i 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\zPDFCreator-0_9_3-AD_DeploymentPackage-WithoutToolbar.msi"/>
        <install cmd="regedit /s 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\HKLM_pdfcreator_command.reg"/>
        <upgrade cmd="msiexec /qn /norestart /i 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\zPDFCreator-0_9_3-AD_DeploymentPackage-WithoutToolbar.msi"/>
        <upgrade cmd="regedit /s 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\HKLM_pdfcreator_command.reg"/>
        <remove cmd="msiexec /qn /x 
%SOFTWARE%\pdfcreator\zPDFCreator-0_9_3-AD_DeploymentPackage-WithoutToolbar.msi"/>
    </package>

But when i look into c$\Program Files\PDFCreator , The version of 
PDFcreator.exe is still 0.8.0.1.
What happened ? Any hint ?
Regards
ELH
