As the title says, I have a program written in VB.net 2010. When I use the publish feature it creates a manifest and setup file that install the program nicely on another PC, but I think the security settings are somehow wrong because it sits there for ninety seconds upon launch. The program works fine on the computer that built it. There is no CPU usage while it is sitting around. Thoughts?
The simplest way is to:
1) Make sure the target machine has the (correct version of the) .NET framework installed
2) Copy the [Project name].exe and any dependant .dll files from your [Project name]\bin\Release folder into a folder on the target machine
3) Double click the [Project name].exe
Alternatively you could have a look at OneClick Publishing but this requires some form of web server and so may be overkill for your application (and I'm not sure if this is available in express edition)
