i did it but i get errors cuase it was belong to the path i wrote it

specify the path to C:\Program Files\(and the folder name of your project) As when you deploy your project all the files will be sitting at the ProgramFiles section. Do you add up the Access file when you setup the project?

i create a new project and setup project didnt work
i get the exe files from release
