Building an Installer with the product version major at 0

Question

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently working on a prototype and I should build an installer for the prototype validation.
The matter is that the prototype version start at 0, and I can't find a way to set in the product version major field at 0.
Setting the major field at 0 is possible while building an executable, but not for an installer.
My LabVIEW version is 12.0
Thanks...

It seems to me that it is the wanted behaviour application builder here. From the help page, you can read the following "You must increment the version number if you want to create upgrade versions of the installer that are capable of overwriting previous installers."
That does not explain anything. We should be able to make the first ever version 0.0.0, that can later be upgraded to e.g. 0.0.1.
According to microsoft:
The format of the string is as follows:
major.minor.build
The first field is the major version and has a maximum value of 255. The second field is the minor version and has a maximum value of 255. The third field is called the build version or the update version and has a maximum value of 65,535.
So, the max is 255.255.65535. There is no minimum given, so 0 should probably be allowed. I suspect that the input field in the build specification has an incorrect range setting.
