Setup File: Debug vs. Release

I'm creating a Setup file for my WinForms app. For the Primary Output, I
explicitly chose the "Release .NET" option. Yet when I looked at the
Detected Dependencies, they all seemed to come from the Debug folder instead
of the Release folder.

How come?
 
Hi Robert,

I personally gave up using the release outputs, because they seemed to
depend on the currently selected configuration (debug/release/etc.), and
this didn't work well for me. Instead, I would just add all the necessary
files manually from the solution projects' Release folders. No more
headache - just had to remember to recompile the release version before
building the setup project itself.
