Exporting visual studio project files

Question

Im done with my first project and I wonder what my options are for exporting it.

I know I can create a .exe file but its a very small software so I dont want the user to have to go through the hassle of an installer for something that small. So I was wondering if I could maybe create a .msi file or something like that.. Packing all the files into 1 small exe or something. without sending them the folder with all the debugged files.

Visual Studio has an extension MS Extension Blog , all installers you create from Visual Studio 2012 on will have a one click installation. Its like deploying website will be very easy.
