    The following thread should answer your question.

    How to control the location of ClickOnce installation?

    ClickOnce applications are installed per user in the user
    application cache. These applications
    are managed by the ClickOnce service.
    If you want to install to a user
    specified location such as C:\Program
    files\ … you should use MSI or some
    other installer technology.

    More about ClickOnce on MSDN:

    ClickOnce Deployment Overview (See the ClickOnce and Windows Installer Comparison Table)
