I have a collection of clickOnce packages in a publish folder on a network drive and need to move them all to another server (our DR machine). After copy/pasting the whole directory and running the setups on the new machine I get an error message stating that it cannot find the old path: Activation of ...MyClickOnceApp.applicati...
How can I protect a ClickOnce deployed application with a password? Do I have to change the IIS settings of the web or is there a way to do it programmatically? I'm using Visual Studio 2005 (.NET 2.0). If I have to use web credentials, are auto-updates of the application still possible? Would be great if you could provide some sample c...

I have a VB.NET ClickOnce application that I am trying to install on my computer. Previously, I was able to install and run these apps without issue. Now when I install the application, I can see the flash of a window opening, and then nothing. (There are also no processes left hanging or anything when viewed with the task manager.) ...
I was wondering if there was a way (hacky will do) to allow a user to go back to a previous version of a ClickOnce network deployed application? I've looked in the docs and API and there seems to be no way. You can selectively choose if you would like to update, but once updated there is, seemingly, no way back. Any advice would be coo...
The Winform application is release with ClickOnce in our Intranet. We store personal preference for the GUI in the Isolated Storage. All works pretty fine :) The problem is when we have a new version of the application, we publish... all preferences are lost! User need to setup their preference over and over each version. Is there a wa...
Is there a way to automatically increment the "minimum required version" fields in a ClickOnce deployment to always equal the current build number? Basically, I always want my deployment to be automatically updated at launch. I suspect I'm going to need a some pre-/post-build events, but I hope there's an easier way. ...
I develop and manage about 45 WindowsCE5 devices. Updating applications on the devices is a nightmare. Is it possible/feasible to do Click-Once on the CF? I take the lack of answers to be "No". :) EDIT: This is a duplicate of question 116713 ...
I've been trying desperately to get my application (15 C# dlls and 1 C++/CLI dll with C++ Runtime DLL dependencies) to deploy with ClickOnce. I got it to work by just copying the Release folder, but ClickOnce refuses to copy the files (msvcm80.dll, msvcp80.dll and msvcr80.dll) and deploy them in this folder. I did this nutty workaround ...
I want to show the publish date in the About dialog. ...
I have an office 07 (specifically Outlook 07) add in created in VS 08. When I uncheck the "Sign the ClickOnce manifests" option, and then publish, it rechecks that option automatically. I have a regular winforms project in the same solution that allows me to publish with this unchecked. Any idea as to why it isn't allowing me to unche...
I am developing an application that will be open source, and i want this application to be updatable through ClickOnce (or similar), but i want to implement it from a free hosting, as i don't know the volume of downloads i will have. I would need something like sourceforge or codeplex,a hosting that allows me to see the version and in t...
I have a ClickOnce deployed application I want to launch from VBScript, similar to launching Microsoft Word in the following example: Dim word Set word = CreateObject("Word.Application") word.Visible = True The problem is I don't know what parameter to pass into the CreateObject function to launch my application. Where would I find th...
We decided to use the minimumRequiredVersion in our clickOnce application manifest, and now when we try to rollback to a previous version when the user launches the application it fails to start. It says the application manifest has a earlier version than the required version and the user can not use the application. We did not have this...
I need to have a single instance application (as per this answer), but it needs to be deployed via click once. The problem is that I require that click once doesn't automatically detect an update an attempt to load a newer version while the application is running. If it is running, then I need the other instance to be made active. Usua...
Hi, I have a solution that is deployed using ClickOnce. It consists of an application, serveral referenced assemblies and a SQL Server Compact database. There is also an assembly which is not referenced by the main application, but simply loaded at runtime. This assembly needs to be deployed along with the application, in the same dir...
Hi, We have a Navigation Based WPF application. It works fine when running directly from Visual Studio, or even if we copy the files to another directory or another computer and run it there. We deploy the application over the internet using ClickOnce and most of the time this does not cause any problems. Every now and then however, i...
I have created a clickonce deployment and published it to a website. I want to put the installer (version 1.0.0) on a cd for distribution to clients. A setup.exe was created in the route of the published folder but this is very small and cannot be the whole thing required for a cd. I passed this on to a co developer who ran the setup.e...
Having sorted out an issue with clickonce deployment the client has asked whether we can modify the installation sequences and pretty them up. Can anyone shed any light on how to customise the look and feel of the clickonce initial installer? ...
I need to make some changes to a clickOnce application that I haven't touched for over a year and therefore the certificate has expired. I've read that publishing with a new certificate will make the application fail because it will be signed with a different key. Therefore I think I need to use the same certificate but not sure how ...
