Updating a folder using a patch with Installshield express 2010

I have installed a software package using installshield.  Part of the package copied about 10 folders onto the C drive of the target machine.  I need to update three of these folders.  I have seen something called quickpatch but it seems to operate on the file level.  I have about 50 files in each folder so I would like to replace the folder with the files inside instead of each individual file.  With the express version, is it possible to replace a folder?  if so, how.

Is anyone familiar with the quickpatch feature of installshield express 2010?  Is there a feature just like this but that replaces folders instead of files?  Also, can you use installshield  quickpatch to create a folder and add files to an existing installation?
