mmilan,
This is effectively a duplicate thread from the back end of thread222-906823, which is why it looks a bit odd. Sorry I should have RF'd and pointed out the duplicate earlier

but is it possible to create your own installer?
I mean, the app automatically copies the DLL's and the runtime files, create folders and so on?

Thank you to all of you, but i put this problem aside
because nothing works and i'm too disapointed.

Wat exactly are you trying to do?
Make an executable file (".EXE") or create an "installation" of your application?

 

[caro8pare]

Exactly, is that my .exe works on the computer that I have created it but not on other computer, even if i have the right stuff like dll, for exemple.

So, someone tell me to create an installation of my application to solve the problem. But I think I don't have the option "Package & Deployment Wizard" installed. So I forget this possibility.

And I have always the same problem.

Ok, forget about Package & Deployment Wizard, try to use Visual Studio Installer. Download it at

Or use Inno Setup
