Hey guys,

I coded an application in C#,
published it via Visual Studio,
installed the app on Client As PC.

Okay now I did 2 backups:
online (its a dated version, oh what luck)
offline (i ALWAYS hated "mobile media" because its to mobile..its "somewhere")

Client B needs this Application for testing purposes (its a prototype)

Weeeeeell, its just an executable file...
and Client A has it "somewhere" on his PC doesnt he?

The link in the startmenu is an "application link" or whatever.
i FRICKING HATE IT! I cannot see a SINGLE pro against normal shortcuts.
An entire System search gave 0 results!

Now where the hell is this executable?

I need this prototype to be delivered by the 22nd... crap, if only i could find that sourcecode CD.

Well ill be looking further for the CD but i looked everywhere (small appartment)

I really need to find that executable on Client As Computer... (Its on Win XP)

No problem, I was doing the first exercise of that C# book I posted about and it also said to make an installer so I did and ran the installer but I couldn't find where it installed either. Kinda sad MS makes such a great IDE but messes up HARD with the publishing/installer part of applications >_>
