Question

If I use the publish feature in VS2008 (I think it’s called ClickOnce install), and then install the published application in another computer, where are the files copied?

In other words: If I need an auxiliary file (a .txt file) in the same path of the assembly, where do I have to create it?

Thank you.

Answer 1

Is the application available offline or online only? My experience is online only and in that case I believe it installs into a temp directory. Can you include your auxiliary file as part of the application files? This may help as well it talks about including data files which can be of any type.
