This is a deployment question and should have been asked in the Deployment forum. Please make the effort to post in the most appropriate forum and make this site easier to use for everyone. Moved.
 
When you create a new version of your installer you need to set the RemovePreviousVersions property to True. You also need to make sure that the UpgradeCode property has the same value as the installer for the previous version and that the ProductCode is different. This is how different versions of the same installed application are identified by the Windows Installer.
