Answer 1

For document-level deployment, I recommend the following three links:

1. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms268758(v=vs.90).aspx

2. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff937654.aspx

3. How do you assign the Assembly Location of an Excel VSTO Installation?

Unlike application-level solution, document-level has 2 special properties: _AssemblyLocation and_AssemblyName, which indicate the *.vsto position. To set these properties by install path, a custom action project should be created to record the target path when installing, and packaged together with setup.exe. Then you could put your excel file anywhere (on local machine) and open it in the correct way.
