Setup And Deploy - Setup File Can Just Be One .exe Rather Then A Setup File And A Data File?
Aug 7, 2009
Setup and deploy for my project worked fine for a while allowing you to install my program and uninstall the old version, but now it installs two entries. I don't get it, before I got it do do that it would give an error that it needed to be uninstalled first. Now like I said I get two entries in the programs uninstall window. RemovePreviousVersions = true. I change the version number and update the product code. Even tried changing the upgrade code. I just don't get why it doesn't work anymore, and its really annoying! Also, is there a way that the setup file can just be one .exe rather then a setup file and a data file?

Other details.
1) I create data base inside of /bin/debug
2) I've created setup file using this method. File menu --> add --> new project Then, Setup and deployment -> Visual studio installer After that I selected Setup project, then click OK.
3) I add database using this Right click on setup file -> add -> file (In solution explorer window) Then i selected my .sdf file.
This is my connection string
CODE:
It is created only 3 files in Program files. 1. my exe 2. my sdf file 3. System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll file
