在VisualStudio 2010安装项目中更改targetName

Question

I am trying to make setup project for my application.

I have added it to my solution with my primary application project. Everything looks fine. I can see detected dependency files:

But i must change targetName of some files. I can't do that and I don't know the reason why?

You can see the "TargetName" is gray and unchangeable. I should be able to rename all files I want if I'm installing them on other machine. How can I change TargetNames in my Setup Project?

Don't think it's going to let you do that without renaming the .dll. The deployment doesn't seem to allow one to change .dll names ... which makes sense, really: you've compiled with the expectation that you're going to have Jacob.Vst.Interop.dll as a reference, so if you remove it, and you're not installing it into the GAC, you're going to have some trouble.
