Windows Installer Deployment

Windows Installer deployment enables you to create installer packages to be distributed to users; the user runs the setup file and steps through a wizard to install the application. This is accomplished by adding a Setup project to your solution. When built, the project creates a setup file that you distribute to users; the user runs the setup file and steps through a wizard to install the application.

Note

The Express Editions do not include Windows Installer technology. For information about the deployment technology used in the Express Editions, see ClickOnce Deployment.
