Hi @jerry-wa0h ,
May I know if you have got any chance to check the answer? I am glad to help if you have any other questions.
@jerry-wa0h, A Visual Studio Installer project should be configured to place deployable content (e.g., images, databases, etc.) in the MSI file. You should do this with the File System Editor. The setup.exe that is created by the Installer project is only used to check for and install any missing prerequisites such as the VC++ runtime or a version of the .Net Framework.
