I have a windows application written in C#. I need to distribute this
app.
What are the files you need to do this. I know that the machines are
to be installed .NET SDK. I just need to know what are the files from
my project that should be copied to the destination machines.

Thanks in advance
 
You need to distribute:
- The .EXE
- The .DLLs that your project uses (that aren't part of the .NET Framework)
- The other resources your app uses at runtime (such as images,
configuration files, etc) that aren't embedded into the binaries (you'll
have to make sure the path to these files stays consistent across machines)

Click to expand...

All components your application uses. If your app (EXE) only requires
some .NET DLLs and resources (images, ...), you will just have to
copy all of these files into a folder on the destination computer.
 
I may be missing something in the other replies, but using vb.net I just
create a setup project to create an msi file. Right click the solution, add
new project, setup and deployment project.....
