There can be many reasons why an app fails to run. perhaps it's missing dependency DLLs. It could be a permissions issue. Maybe resource files or other config files are missing. It may be using hardcoded paths. And with .NET apps, the target machine may not have the exact same framework version (including any SPs).

well, I made a install setup project and added all files in bin/debug directory of wpf app.
setup only detected one dependency - .NET;

I install the setup in other computers and it installs just fine. The problem is when i try to run application, nothing happens.

You are releasing a debug-mode binary. You need to make a release-mode build and then distribute those files (/bin/release). The debug mode binaries are only meant for dev/debug/test work.
