I just downloaded & read through it, didn't see a solution for what I wanted, basically, I really want the installed product to appear at the control panel add/remove program windows with the product name only, not followed by "version 1.0.0.0"
Lets say my the product is called "My Game", currently it will appear in the uninstall list as "My game version 1.0.0.0", I want it to just appear as "My Game".
As I said, found no way to control that, maybe with registry entries but I wouldn't know how.
As for the desktop shortcut, as far as I can see using the CUSTOM type at the executable settings is my best option, it gives me the closest result to what I wanted.
EDIT:
Nevermind, figured it out, indeed using registry values, I just installed the game from the custom setup & located the registry entries the installer automatically adds for the uninstall values, from there I extracted the Displayname value and added it to the setup project, changed the display name, uninstalled, reinstalled original version, re-compiled, and uninstalled, then reinstalled from the custom setup and the uninstall value appeared right as I wanted.
So I'm finally done & the custom setup ready.
