I have a C# program that I poorly named when I first started it and want it changed now. I've changed the solution name, but that doesn't appear to change what the program is named when it publishes.
My question is how to change the publish name.

A:
In VS, right click the project and click properties.
Publish Tab>Options>Description
You can set the publisher name, suite name, product name etc.
edit> After your comment, then you might be looking for the Assembly Name:
Properties>Application>Assembly Name

I tried changing the "product name" field, but the published name of the program is still the same.

Note that if you change the assembly name and someone has the old version installed, it will install the new one side-by-side. Just FYI.

A:
If you are referring to the name of the DLL, then you've to go to the project properties (not the solution) and give it the name inside the application properties tab.
