I created an msi using the Setup Wizard, but don't seem to be able to create a shortcut to the applicaton on the desktop (or prompt for one) or the menu. Also, I would like to add an "uninstall" to this, but don't see that it allows for this? Am I missing something?

I would like to create a database for my application when it is deployed. This database can be from different types depending on the tool installed on the customer computer and will be chosen during the startup wizard. Where do I write the code in the project? How do I open a new database programmatically? How do I open a new database and copy data to it from my files programmatically? Is there an example explaining this?

Hi, I have a solution that includes a deployment project. The solution contains a database file (access). Now I'd like to exclude the database and only deploy an updated version of the other files - so far so good. Hence, all the old files, except the database, should be written over and replaced by the new ones (this should work as an update). How do I set this up in the deployment project properties? All I get when I try to install the...

I've written an application using VB.NET 2003 and packaged it with a deployment project. When I use the setup program to install the application, however, it doesn't work. More specifically, the shortcut placed in the Start Menu doesn't work. I've noticed that the shortcut is strange. Unlike a normal shortcut, I can't see the command it is supposed to issue. This makes it very difficult to debug the problem. Furthermore, I suspect that...

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,...
