I have created vs installer 2010. all works fine. I even created the shortcut and it works fine too. User’s Desktop -> Create Shortcut to User’s Desktop. The problem is it only creates a short cut to the application folder and not to the application it self (ie abc.exe). how can I create a short cut to the application? also I notice that after the install the shortcut link on the desktop does not show right away. I have to fresh F5 (refresh my desktop) for the icon to show up

    Select Application Folder, right click on Primary Output from <YourProject> and then select Create shortcut to primary output from <YourProject>.
    Then drag the shortcut and drop it on the User’s Desktop folder.
