You need to patch first.
- Install your MSI as an admin image to an Administrative Install Point (AIP) using the '/A' switch
- Patch that MSI
- Set your deployment to use the resulting MSI from the AIP and your MST from...wherever. It's probably a good idea to keep the MSI and MST together but they don't need to be.
Lastly, this is the wrong forum for your post. This forum is concerned with errors returned by the Windows Installer engine. Your post belongs in the 'Package Development' forum. A moderator may well move it.

Hi all, is it possible to create a patch to replace some files in the INSTALLDIR that were applied via MST?
I have tried the basic patch project of Installshield but when I trying to browse the files that I want to patch (cannot find), is it because applied with the MST?
Thanks in advance
