To Add Components to the Setup Project

  • Article

This section adds the output files used by the Windows application to the Setup Project. Since you plan to use the .msi Windows Installer file to deploy the Windows application, you do not need to add merge modules to the Setup Project.

To add the Output Files to the Windows Setup Project

  1. In Solution Explorer, right-click Setup1, point to Add, and then click Project Output....

  2. In the Add Project Output Group dialog box, select Primary output.

Leave the Configuration as (Active).
