Hi All,

I've got this application I've designed that uses some folders and documents in project path, but when I try to create a ClickOnce deployment and install the application not all of the folders are created that I need, only the ones with the documents that I included in the project resources. I've not found anywhere that I can tell ClickOnce to create empty folders. Is there any other type of installer that I can use that will install everything I need and still have software update capabilities that ClickOnce has?

Please help me.

Thanks in Advance.

Solution 1

Yes ClickOnce has,
add your folder and files in your project and folder or files properties set copy local = true after that compile your project and try again,
it probably solution ok?

Emrah,

Thank you for your reply. I get that you can add files to your project and set the properties to copy local, but how can you add an empty folder (that will later have files added by user) and set its properties to copy local? I've added the empty folders to my project but can't find where to tell VS to copy the folder in my ClickOnce deployment. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Check Folder on your application if it is not exist create it.
