In VB .NET Standard there is no wizard, only a Setup project template.
In VS .NET Professional and greater just add a Setup and Deployment
project or start the wizward (in the new project dialog). Notice that you
can add the setup project to an existing solution by setting the appropriate
option in the "New Project" dialog box.

Or

If you don't like the VS Installer you could always check out Inno

It's Free, I used to use it for VB6. But the VS one may do everything you
want anyway :-)

It seems you are not enabling Option Strict. Enable it in the project
properties and the compiler might find the error for you. Jobs a good'n!

Change Build to Release in your IDE
Open your Solution Explorer
RigthClick on the setup project and choose Build
(The setup is the .msi that is generated)
