Attaching and running EXE files with MSI

[MichaelNesmith]

Well, if you added those files to a build, such as with an application runtime, there isn't really another option available!

I understand that but I didn't add any of those files to my build. I only added two files, my setup.exe and my OCX file. That's it.

Hi theseira,

If in the "Application Runtimes" section of the design view any package is checked, it will copy these file from the program folder to your build folder.

You could avoid that from happening every time by building a "Web deploy" setup, and disabling the rebuild of these web media blocks after the first run in the design view under "deployment" -> "Web media blocks"

But that might raise a whole lot of new questions...
Most of them should be answered in the white paper:
