Every time I run the Visual Studio setup I encounter the following error message "A problem has been encountered while loading the setup components. Canceling setup.".

Hello everyone. I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and I can set the application icon using the My Project -> Application - Tab with a path. But, is there any way to set the application icon to an embedded resource instead of the file itself?
