Answer 1

If you are using Visual Studio 2010 you can find single file option in View menu, click Property Pages when a deployment project is selected in Solution Explorer. Then choose Build in the Configuration Properties list. Under Package files option you can choose In "setup file". (however the dependencies are often put in the same folder).I can suggest creating an SFX(Self Extracting Archive) or Packer as UPX or others as it will also reduce the file size.

In Visual Studio 2012 or higher you can use Installshield Limited Edition and creating a project of msi Installer or Installshield script.

hope that helps

you can create SFX with any of available zip or rar tools (7zip,winzip or winrar will do too).create a archive and proceed to create SFX and define file to run after extraction.. you can see http://www.wikihow.com/Use-7Zip-to-Create-Self-Extracting-excutables

UPX

WWPACK

for comprehensive information of packers you can visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_compression

Answer 2

a bit of a curveball but setup files are very 1990's - have you considered using spoon to deliver your app in its own environment with its own dependencies as a single exe.

See spoon.net and spoon studio for what you can do but honestly it is a really nice way to distribute an app.

[Edit] not sure why the downvote but having a single exe to run an app can be a much better experience for an end user
