3. took the setup.msi to another machine and installed it.
Here are my problems.
1. The icon which created in the desktop and start menu is not running the exe, but pointing to desktop only.

Add the setup project to the OLD project, and it will compile (hopefully)
Re: Making a setup exe for the application
I have added the setup project to the old project and compiled. But the icons are not displayed correctly in the desktop. Also how to enable the launch option once the installion is over?
Re: Making a setup exe for the application
It should be a checkbox. Have you seen CLICK ONCE? It's an option
Re: Making a setup exe for the application
In the user desktop option, we have to create the shortcut with an icon. The short cut should be to the primary output to the application folder.
Thank you all for the help
