I am preparing to use ClickOnce to deploy SQL Server 2019 Express with my application, and need to know where I can find the product.xml and package.xml files for that version of SQL, which is a NON-LocalDB SQL Server 2019 Express install.
I downloaded the SQL Server 2019 Express redistributable, i.e. "SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe".
My C# application previously deployed a SQL Server 2012 Express database. However, the product.xml and package.xml files are different and I'm not sure if I can just modify them for this ClickOnce deployment, or even how to do so correctly.
Note that this is Not a LocalDB install of SQL Server 2019 Express.
