Welcome to VBForums arunkumar213.
Well I would say the best one to use is Inno Setup if you only want a single exe.

I've been programming with VB for 17 years. Started with VB4 16bit Pro, VB5 Pro, VB6 Pro/Enterprise and now VB3 Pro. But I'm no expert, I'm still learning.

You can package with the PDW and then wrap this into a self-extracting EXE that runs setup.exe using IExpress. IExpress is part of the IEAK, but was also included in every version of Windows beginning with WinXP.
If you want a "first class" installation package you should create an MSI though. All legacy scripted installers were deprecated starting with Windows Vista and only work through appcompat now.
