Install File
I want to create an install file for a program I created in Visual Studio .NET, I want it to put the program in the program files folder, a shortcut in the start menu and on the desktop, add two registry keys, and check if the .NET framework is installed and if not install it. Is all this possible? I have no idea how to create an install file. Thanx for the help in advance!

Yes, this is possible.
Go to the File menu... File->New->Project->Setup and Deployment->Setup Project You should try playing around with it first; in my experience, it's a little tricky to use.

You could make them extract as an aditional file and then add the post install command "regedit -i %1" where %1 is the path to the .reg file, which would be one of the installation variables available. However, the wizard has its own section for manipulating the registry, so it'd be best to use that.
