clickonce

I am creating a clickonce installer for my wpf application from within Visual Studio 2013 Community edition. This application uses a localdb. It works fine on the target machines if I manually install sqlserver express 2014 LocalDB. But I would like to include the installer for SQL Server Express 2014 LocalDB with my clickonce deployment. When I open the prerequisites dialog, however, only SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB is available (see image). I tried selecting '2012, but it is not compatible with the mdf file my installer drops into the data folder. The question is: How do I include the

For a regular .exe file i can always right click and select "run as..". How can i run a Click-Once application under different credentials in a similar way? I am talking about the application itself, not the installer. The answer really is no, you shouldn't do this. ClickOnce applications are installed under the user profile and belong only to that user. THey will not and do not work as an all-user installation. Also note that if you double-click on the [exe] file (the location of which changes every time there is an update), it will not look for updates, it will not check the files to make

I have to make a Backup of the Program running from the file *.appref-ms When i Opened the File GitHub.appref-ms using text editor i found http://github-windows.s3.amazonaws.com/GitHub.application#GitHub.application , Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8f45a2159c87c850, processorArchitecture=x86 Where is the Target Pointing in the LocalDisk, Editing the PublicKeyToken Resulted in Default or Null Icon. Editing the URL Resulted in "Application Cannot Start". How is *.appref-ms Targeting the Exe??? This doesn't answer my Question Note : I tried Opening the File Offline, Still it Works Perfectly.

Every time I publish the application in ClickOnce I get get it to update the revision number by one. Is there a way to get this change automatically to change the version number in AssemblyInfo.cs file (all our error reporting looks at the Assembly Version)? Jason Stangroome We use Team Foundation Server Team Build and have added a block to the TFSBuild.proj's AfterCompile target to trigger the ClickOnce publish with our preferred version number: <MSBuild Projects="$(SolutionRoot)\MyProject\Myproject.csproj" Properties="PublishDir=$(OutDir)\myProjectPublish\; ApplicationVersion=$

What is the process of obtaining a certificate to sign my ClickOnce assembly(ies)? I've got a few ClickOnce applications at my company, but they are all signed with temporary certificates created by Visual Studio. Those are obviously not Trusted Root Authorities nor Trusted Publishers. I've followed along the article Configuring ClickOnce Trusted Publishers , and I like the experience when something is signed with a certificate that is both a Trusted Root Authority and Trusted Publisher (that is, no prompt, just an install). Can I use the same certificate to sign multiple ClickOnce assemblies?

I have several .NET Windows Forms applications that I'm preparing to convert into a ClickOnce /smart-client deployment scenario. I've read the isn't-this-great tutorials, but are there pitfalls or "gotchas" that I should be aware of? There are several minor applications used off and on, but the main application is in C#, runs 24/7, is quite large, but only changes every few weeks. It also writes to a log file locallly and talks to local hardware devices. Darrel Miller Here are a few that I am aware of. Can't put an icon on the desktop. You can now. I can't install for all users. I need to jump

I have a windows forms application that is deployed to two different locations. Intranet - ClickOnce Internet - Installed on a citrix farm through Windows installer I display ClickOnce version number for click-once deployed version ApplicationDeployment.IsNetworkDeployed . if (ApplicationDeployment.IsNetworkDeployed) return ApplicationDeployment.CurrentDeployment.CurrentVersion; But for the non-click application, I am not sure how to retrieve clickonce version unless I hardcode the version number in assembly info. Is there an automatic way of retrieve ClickOnce version number for non-clickonce

I am developing a game with WPF technology.
