Not sure if this is normal or not but I created a deployment project for my tool (tool.exe) which was created using VSC# 2003 .Net 1.1 and after running the MSI (installing) there is a tool.exe.config file that also appears (I can also see it in primary outputs of the deployment project).

If I delete the file after install the tool.exe still runs fine and I see no reason to keep it (I kind of liked that it was a one-file deployment) so I wanted to know a few things:
- Is there a reason to keep this file post-install?
- Is there a way to remove it from the outputs of my MSI package (deployment package)?
Because I don't recall ever adding it before and I don't see anywhere I can remove it from the outputs of the project...

Any information or help would be much appreciated...
Thanks,
