I am doing a simple setup deployment.... everything is fine but the program
installs to the Program Files\Default Company Name....

I hear that is derived from the "Manufacturer"....

Where do you change this ? How do you get there ?

Thanks !

Assuming this is VS2005 or VS2003, and you have created a setup
project using the Setup project template, then just select the setup
project in the Solution Explorer. The initial value of the
Manufacturer property is "Default Manufacturer". Just change that to
whatever value you want to. (You know, I'm not sure that step is
required. That value may just be used to provide values for the
product when viewed in the Add/Remove New Programs Control Panel
display.) The key to your specific question is when you define the
File System for the setup project, you need to create the target
folder to install in under "User's Program Menu".
