Setup project - how to change name

[yatingg]

I have a setup project that contains many primary outputs. The setup is now called "MySetup" So, when I run this setup on a client, that's the name that it shows on the "add/remove programs" Where do I change that? I want it to show my software name + version.

Thanks in advance.

HI,

Have I missed something?

Have you tried right clicking on the project name in the solution window and then choosing Rename? You can also rename the Solution this way.

Obviously, any code in other projects will have to be amended if it refers to any objects or procedures in the amended one.

So, renaming the project will rename the project and that's it.

Maybe my question wasn't clear. This is what I do...

My solution contains projects and the setup project. The setup project contains many primary outputs. I build this solution, it gets me the .msi file that I need. I take this .msi file, copy it to another machine (a client) and run the install. It installs my program. Now, when I go to the "add/remove programs" on this client in the control panel, it shows "MySetup" as the application name. I want to change that name to something else.

So, my question is, where in my solution or setup project do I change this name?

I think you may be looking for the "Manufacturer" property of the Setup project.
Go to Solution Explorer and highlight the Setup project. In the Properties window, change the "Manufacturer" property to whatever name you want it installed under.
It helps to change the version number in the same Property window to allow the app to install over the old one w/o deleting the old one first.
Save all, yada yada, and you're all set.
