I have a Basic MSI update project in which I need to run FindRelatedProducts. However due being in maintenance mode FindRelatedProducts is not run. I have tried clearing both of the properties, "Installed" and "MAINTENANCE". It appears that the clearing of Installed works fine but MAINTENANCE does not. Can the MAINTENANCE Property be cleared or reset somehow?

Any clues on how to do this?????

I'm not sure how MAINTENENACE gets set in a Basic MSI project (I thought this was a InstallScript MSI thing). But anyway: the recommended way would be to change the product code, thus the product will be seen as not installed, and you're perfoming a Major Upgrade where FindRelatedProducts and RemoveExistingProducts do their duty.
