I am publishing a .NET 3.5 SP1 WPF application through ClickOnce. By default, when the user clicks on the published link the application gets installed and a menu and shortcut are added to the client’s Start/All Programs menu.
How can I prevent the shortcut/menu from being created? (Users need to run the application solely by clicking on the hyperlink to the ‘.application’ file on a web page.)
For this behaviour, set it as online only. Project properties -> Publish -> ‘The application is available online only’ (radio button).
It will still do the same local caching of files etc; it is mainly the start-menu that changes (I don’t have a full list of the differences).
