[wix-users] 11 files not being installed with our Enterprise installer...

I just encountered a very similar scenario. Open your new MSI with
Orca or InstEdit. Check the Version column of the File table for the
11 removed files. I'm guessing that you'll find the Version column to
be Null for those files.
The Windows Installer engines sees there are versioned files on the
target system and refuses to replace them with unversioned copies in
the upgrade MSI. BUT when RemoveExistingProducts executes it decides
to delete the files as it normally would. The end result is that the
files are missing.
If this describes your scenario, then you'll want to make sure those
11 files are getting a proper version in the new version.
