    Hey,

    Given that you are asking about a Windows Application, I am going to ask for this thread to be moved out of this forum.

    What version of Visual Studio are you using? The answer to that question will determine what options you have out of the box.

    With the express editions, you have the option of using ClickOnce.

    With a fuller version, you have the option of creating a Setup Project.

    There is always the option as well of using a 3rd installer like Wix.

    In which case, you have the option of adding a Setup Project to your solution.

    This can include the output of multiple projects, and do all the work of adding shortcuts etc as required.

    You can find a walkthrough here:
