Is there any way to do this in the Express version? It doesn’t seem to have any of those templates.
I apologize. Express edition does not allow setup projects. You can go here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235291%28v=vs.90%29.aspx to see another way to deploy.
Which Visual Studio version of 2010 do you use?
I thought the only other version was Pro.
There is Express, Professional, Premium, and Ultimate.
Which versions allow the project setups to be made?
The ones that cost money….
Yes, unfortunately, that was an oversight of mine. I had not realized that the free ones would not allow the built in setup projects. I may do a video in the future on deploying with the free version, as there are other libraries that make this possible.
I use Visual Studio 2010 Developer edition
Thanks for the reply.
