Basic installer not showing program in Start menu

I have made a deployment project for my very simple .Net 4.0 C# Winforms app Yet when I install it, I do not see the program on the start menu. Tested on my 64-bit Win7 desktop and my 32-bit XP Laptop.

I have done this in the past and it worked fine. What crazy default value setting am I missing?

Thank you

Daniel

With the basic installer (Windows Installer) provided in Visual Studio you have to add an actual shortcut to "the primary output" to your desktop and/or Startmenu. Afaik it is not added automatically.
