Can the initial install and subsequent updates for a ClickOnce deployed app be from a different media

For bandwidth reasons, I would like to do the initial install of a ClickOnce application from a DVD and subsequent updates (which will generally be much smaller than the initial install as we are supporting multifile assemblies) from a web server. Is this possible?

Yes. (Someone asked me this exact question on Twitter last night.)

If you click on the Updates button in the Publish tab, you'll see that you can put in a URL for updates. This will be used instead of the publishing location or installation URL when picking up updates.

If you are doing to deploy .Net 3.5 SP-1, you have to enable samesite in order to deploy it from your CD. By defaulot, it only has the web install. Check out the instructions here:
