Unable to deploy VC++ Wizard

Question

I've developed a custom VC++ Wizard. This has been done using VS 2013 Ultimate. However, I am not able to deploy it.

I've coped the 3 files, <wizard_name>.ico, <wizard_name>.vsz and <wizard_name>.vsdir to Visual_Studio_Installation\VC\VCProjects. I've edited the .vsz file to specify the necessary relative path to VCWinzards.

I've kept the rest of the folders, viz., 1033, HTML, IMAGES, SCRIPTS and TEMPLATES, in the VCWizards\AppWiz\wizard_name directory.

The wizard shows up in the VC++ projects list, and the HTML page shows up too, but when I click on finish, nothing loads and I see the same New Project screen again.

The wizard works normally, when I had developed it.

What could be the reason?

You have probably got some files in the wrong places, or some links set incorrectly. I have only done this in the Express versions so am not sure what you may need to change. I suggest you look at the directory structure for one of the standard templates and make sure that yours is structured exactly the same way.

Turned out, I was copying the wrong files. It's solved. Would you know if the VC++ wizard thus created work for C++/CLI projects?
