c# windows application crashes after installation

Question

i recently developed ac# windows application with visual studio 2010. My application was consisted by 2 projects, the main one and a setup project.

In my PC and Laptop everything works fine (i have vs2010 installed in both). I install the application and run it without problems.

The problem is that after installing it on other machines, i run the app and after a few second i get this message:

Does anyone know why is this happening? Thank you in advance

Answer 1

Looks like it can't find SQL Server Compact Edition on the target PC. You need to add a reference to it in your installer

Does this help?:

Answer 2

OK i figured it out. You were right about the SQL CE. I had it as a prerequisite in the first project but NOT in the setup project!! Thank you very much for your help
