Am I stupid or is there not a way to publish my apps made on "Microsoft Visual C# Express Edition"? I mean I see how to publish them from the build tab at the top but the app doesn't work on any one elses computer but mine and I want to be able to put it online for others to download, is there any way to do this?
I've heard Visual Studio has publishing a app as a built in function, so do I really just need to download VS?
Thanks +rep for your help.

I know that if you want the .exe you can just go into the debug folder and copy that one out. Far from publishing but a working solution.
Actually I was told a installer was what I was looking for, So i guess this questions has been answered thanks though.

just a note. beside the green debug arrow on your toolbar there is a drop menu where you can select debug or release builds before you build the solution but yes using the debug one would work just as well provided that its the most recent build.

In VS Express you can only create the "one click" installers if you right click on the solution and hit "publish". If you have the Pro version, you'll have the ability to create real installation packages. The OC option only lets you "install" the application to the "My Applications" folder in My Documents for the current user.

It should if you did it right. I'm assuming you created the one click installer? If so, what happens when people try to install it?
No I downloaded the free version of Advanced Installer but haven't ever used it.

If you have a solution, what is the point of the question? Just use advanced installer.

I'm not really sure I understand the question anymore. It sounds like you tried using the one click deployment in VSE, but it didn't work. But now you have this other program you say you have.
I was going to suggest something like that as an alternative to VS. Find yourself an easy, and free, install builder and go from there.
