I would like to Exclude MyApp.Exe.Config from my Setup
Package as I don't want it to get overwritten during
upgrade installation of my application.

If I remove app.config while building the setup, it
removes existing app.config on the target machines and if
included, it overwrites the existing ones.

I tried editing the msi package and removing the
app.config file from the table but it did not work. Any
Idea?

Thanks,

Try using the ExcludeFilter property on the Project Output group, you can
exclude *.config.
