Build the project and then the executable is located at bin\Release inside of your project folder.
If your program has any dependencies, such as .DLLs, the executable will not work on other machines without properly installing it.
The exe that the application is linked to is buried very deep in C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Apps\2.0\ then a few randomly named folders. You'd have to search beyond that to find it. Using the exe as suggested by weirddemon might be the easier route.
Ok thanks a lot, i thought thats where I would find it but when i looked the description of the file was Test so i got a bit confused but then realised that i had set the description when publishing the project for some reason.
Thanks for the help
