The problem with the Setup and Deployment project is that it's not really designed to support multiple projects or complex installations. I haven't used it in years, just because I needed to to more complex things in my setups, like what you're doing.

We've tried marking Exclude on the duplicates, but that seems like a workaround and not a real solution.


There's a bunch of little gotcha's in the S&D project like that.

I'm assuming that if we did the Setup scraper, and used InstallShield Express, we'd also need to include code in each project to manually force the project to look in the Common File folder for the 'missing' DLLs.


I've had to do that before. It's not very difficult at all, but you do have to put some custom code in to use the CommonFiles folder.

Basically, the AppDomain class exposes a AssemblyResolve event that can be used to manually load an assembly that fails to load because it wasn't in the normal assembly search chain. You can use then return the corrected path to where the assembly should be found. It's not much code at all.

You can play around with the example found here[^]. And there's a C# example here[^] in answer #2. It's badly formatted, but is easily cleaned up and translates directly to VB.NET.
