I have two questions concerning publishing and installation:
1. I used the publish wizard to publish an application. The application
gets installed on the target computer in some obscure folder. My
question is: how can I control the path in which the program gets
installed?

2. When I install a new version of the program all the files in folder
of the program get deleted, including files that are not overriden by
newer versions. How can i set up the installation program so that it
keeps the files that do not get replaced by newer versions?

Thanks
 
I think you need to be more clear, are you referring to a click once
deployment? A web site published to server? An app published to server?

1) If you are referring to click once, the installation directory on the
client is an obfuscated location, intentionally hard to find to protect your
code.

2) Can't answer as not sure what your publishing.....
 
I think it is a click once app published to server.
I can see the logic of an obfuscated location, but eventually every one
can find it.
Can I set it up so that it will be located at the Programs Files
folder, for example?
As for 2, I already figured it out

Thanks
