How to create a Installer File for a Windows Forms Application??
1. I've used below method for publishing my WinForms application. Is it Ok??
2. How can I make a Installer file?? Also add Database support so that My clients can install this Application on their PC and use database (without installing Sql server on their PC). I am using SQL server database for my project.

Hi,
1. Where would you like to publish your app?
2. Installer projects are not supported in Rider: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RIDER-1401. As an alternative, you can try Wix toolsets (https://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/votive/authoring_first_votive_project.html). It is generally supported in Rider, but there is still no UI for creating this project (https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RIDER-61281).
3. Could you please clarify what you exactly miss in the case of MS SQL Database support? There is a "Database" tool window in Rider where you can work with many different databases. Please, take a look at the help pages: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/rider/Relational_Databases.html.
