View 1 RepliesSetup 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?

When they leave for the day and come back they can click the load button and it auto fills in all the relevant data that will be stored in the file.
Still digging through the MSDN for help, but no luck on options yet.
I was thinking save the information to a text file somehow, but passwords will be stored and I would like to make it secure if possible.
