IDE :: Click Once Installation Folder?
Aug 17, 2011
I'm trying to public a VB program and I want to install the program from the same directory I am publishing it to which is a file path of the form P:DirDir. This doesn't seem to be working... In the publishing folder text box I have a file path but it won't allow me to put that same file path in the installation folder text box... and it has brackets (if different than above) over the installation folder text box so that should mean it is not a required text box.. but when I go to publish now it asks for me to put a path in there.

In VS 2010, under "Installation folder URL" (under Publish) I have inserted this "\localhostProgram FilesRajoni" - my project name is "Rajoni". Isn't this the path where I want my app to be installed on user computer? Because in my Program Files I don't have anything

I'm working on a project that will be finished pretty soon. But I've got a problem: I have songs in the program, and in the installation program I want to add a sub folder that installs on the computer in the same place at the game. In the sub folder pictures and music should be. But how do I do this and how do I change the file path so it can independent be installed on a new computer?

i have a project and wish to use a setup file that installs all required software .net etc . I can manage this using the publish function .But i also need to add a couple of csv files to the installation.
change the installation folder to program files instead of application files . I think i need to use the setup and deployment and add a new project using "visual studio installer" .This as far as i have got i can not seem to create a setup (the one i built just hangs)

The 'DefaultLocation' for my application is set to '[ProgramFilesFolder]MyApp'. Now I would like the user to select what drive to install this application to. I know this is accomplished through the 'Installation Folder Selection' dialog, but I want the user to be able to select a drive only, not the entire path.
My question is how do I capture what drive the user selected from the 'Installation Folder Selection' dialog and use that drive letter to tack on to my 'DefaultLocation' variable?

I created a Visual Studio 2005 application that works and installs on other user's computers, but not the way I want.
1. I want to create a single file that I can distribute to any user so when he clicks it, the application will be INSTALLED.
2. When it installs, it chooses to do in its own location. It does not give the user an option to save or install in a specific folder (where the application will be used because other files are there). How do i allow the user to save the the application in a specific folder?
3. I would like a single file that the user clicks to RUN the application. Is that the in*.exe?

I have tested a few applications downloaded from net. They are surely database applications but when I checked in the folder where the application is installed, there is no database (no mdb, sdf etc.) When I install my application, my databases are always in the folder.
What is the trick to make them invisible but they should still work.

I can add a folder in the setup/deployment project and it gets added when my project is installed. when I do it by writing code, I get a message "access is denied", but the programme will continue to work. I eventually worked out that I had to right click the exe file (in programfiles) and run as administrator so that the directory is created (as the form loads).

I have developed a WinForm app using vb.net. The app needs to send an email notification to users containg the id of an item that needs thier attention. The email needs to contain the link and commandline parameters so that the user can clik on the link and the app will open the correct form, with the item to be updated, already loaded. Click Once installs the app under the users directory ("Documents nd setting\%USERNAME%Start MenuPrograms\%AppName%..."), so, the email has to contain the user name as part of the path.
- How can click once be configured so that the instalation is in the program files directory to avoid having to add the username as path of the path?
- how do send a link which contains a parameter that directs the app to load a speciified form (not the startup form)?

I am trying to make an app that launches a window(Form Window) whenever a user click a folder in Windows. My app will be running in the background all the time and it will be monitoring the double click of a particular folder.
I have found this[URl]..But the problem is that, it checks attributes of the folder instead of the double click.
Is there anyway i can check the double click of a folder in Windows?

I've been going round and round with this and thought maybe someone would know.I've created a program which with process.showdialog calls up a form into which the user enters username and password then is given access to the program itself. If the username and password is incorrect, the program closes.
There is a frmMain and in the form load I've added the process to open this sort of splash login screen. It's not a splash really, it isn't timed to close down.
I fill out the login information, click the save settings checkbox which creates a settings file in MyDocuments. My problem is that in debugging, removing the click closes the login page without the click actually becoming unclicked. The Main program opens before there's been a chance to register the "unclick." Hope this makes sense.

I have a simple program that opens up a text file and changes it and then what I want to do is save a text file when you click the "convert" button to the directory that the exe exists in e.g. "C:UsersBeaudeanDesktop--Distro--" etc. so say I have a richtextbox with the text in it I want to save and a button called "convert", when I click convert it will save it in the programs root folder with the name "main.html" and I also want it to overwrite any file with the same name.

Tried to look for a solution for this problem everywhere and can't seem to find it?I have found solutions related to sub-classing the document, but this method results in a Null Exception as there is no document.

AddHandler Me.WebBrowser1.Document.ContextMenuShowing, AddressOf WebContextMenuShowing
WebBrowser1.ContextMenu.Dispose()
