Ali,

Once you have set up your Deployment project in the your applications
solution. Goto View -> File System on main menu.

You are presented with "Applicatio n Folder", "User's Program Menu" and
"User's Desktop".

Select the appropriate area you want your new folder ro appear in, right
click your mouse and select "Add" and then "Folder".
The new folder is placed here.

I have created a setup project and was able to include the exe as well as the source code in the install. However, I have been unable to include the setup project source. Therefore, when I access the solution after the install, I get an error message stating the setup project is missing. In the 'Add Project Output Group' dialogue, all my projects are listed EXCEPT the setup project. Any ideas? Scott

I've created a web setup project that works great for installing an ASP.NET application to a virtual directory on a server.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
