CST1620 C# Programming

Week Bonus2

This week we create a Windows installer for the Guess a Word program. This is typically what you see if you download a software package and install it on your machine. It is typically a .msi installer file or a setup.exe file. The installer file creates all the necessary folders, start menu shortcuts, registry entries, and puts all working files into the correct locations per Microsoft Windows standards.
