Is it in the release sub-folder?

Inside release, there also doesn't exist .exe and .msi files.
and one more thing that i had observed that when i am going to build setup then it doesn't show build successed messsge,instead of that my solution exlore windows with visual studio restart automatically

Well that will explain why there is no exe or msi. Try cleaning your solution and try to build again. If that doesn't work try manually removing the PDB files from your solution.

after deleting pdb file or cleaning solution it also doesn't work.

Oh dear, that's usually worked for me in the past. The only other thing I can suggest is to uninstall and re-install Visual Studio

Thanks Sir,
I solved this by re-install of visual studio.

Having advised the OP to clean the solution and delete any pdb files, which didn't work, I suggested uninstalling and re-installing Visual Studio. OP has advised this has solved the problem
