Additional Features in a Setup Wizard Project

Hello,

I recently was introduced to the process of making a setup wizard for a program in Visual Studio. After making one and figuring out how to include other files, I couldn't figure out two main things. Those are:

1. How to have the wizard put a shortcut (with a custom icon) onto the desktop, and

2. How to have the wizard use my "company's" name instead of 'Default Company Name' while creating the folder that goes into the Program Files folder.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

1. Please see the Deploying a Windows-based application walk-through for info about this:

2. Set the "Manufacturer" property in the Properties Window of the setup project (typically viewed when you hit F4)
