Re: Exclude custom action .exe

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If you add the exe as a custom action in the application folder it will also
show up in the solution explorer view. Right-click->Properties there will
show you an Exclude you can set. Note that it will run from a temp folder,
not your application folder.

Thanks very much. I'll try then, but I also needed to know if it's
possible to exclude the executable file I run in my custom action. That
is, execute it but not copy it in to the application's folder. I'm
afraid it's impossible.....am I wrong?

Regards.
