Remarks

When updating the Version child elements, the complete version number must be greater than or equal to the previous version number.

For example, as shown in the following table, updating from the initial version number of 2.1.24.0 to 2.1.24.1 is fine. However, updating the version to 2.0.24.1 raises an error when you update the application.

Initial version number Acceptable update Invalid update
<Major>2</Major> 
<Minor>1</Minor> 
<Build>24</Build> 
<Revision>0</Revision>
<Major>2</Major> 
<Minor>1</Minor> 
<Build>24</Build> 
<Revision>1</Revision>
<Major>2</Major> 
<Minor>0</Minor> 
<Build>24</Build> 
<Revision>1</Revision>

Example

The following example shows how to specify a current application version number of 2.1.3.10.

<Version>
    <Major>2</Major>
    <Minor>1</Minor>
    <Build>3</Build>
    <Revision>10</Revision>
