C# app's installer is installed but doesn't run

137 Views Asked by At

I created my application's installer with latest InstallShield (Limited Edition for Visual Studio 2015). In fact, these are two independent but talking applications. Smaller one is just responsible for generating data and sending it over COM port and larger one listens for and processes that data.

Now when i created InstallShield installer for smaller one (which is using a Class Library from larger app), its installer is created quite ok and it's running smoothly. But when i create installer for the larger app, it is created fine but when I click the installed shortcut, it simply doesn't start/run.

This larger app has 3 projects, two are class libraries and the third one is the application GUI and the startup project of my app. In the created installer, both class libraries' .dll files are present. Still the project runs from VS15 and from corresponding .exe but not from the installed shortcut.

Where could i possibly go wrong?
