There isn't one. I think it was removed in VS 2012. There's a lot of work that goes into making a good installer and the restrictions of the VS setup project were too many. You can use WiX, Inno Setup or move to a newer model like Click Once or the Windows Store – Panagiotis Kanavos Oct 30 '14 at 08:01

`code formatting` is for code, not emphasis. – dandan78 Oct 30 '14 at 08:02

@danish No they don't. It's not included in VS. Installshield is yet-another-installer-builder as far as VS is concerned. – Panagiotis Kanavos Oct 30 '14 at 08:04

@PanagiotisKanavos VS2012 onwards does not have anything built in. They recommend getting installshield. I would personally prefer WIX. – danish Oct 30 '14 at 08:05

@danish That doesn't mean that Microsoft uses it - in fact you can find blog posts in MSDN about Inno Setup – Panagiotis Kanavos Oct 30 '14 at 08:06

So we are **all** wrong and they released a Setup project extension back in June! – Panagiotis Kanavos Oct 30 '14 at 08:08

Apparently you can use Visual Studio Installer Project Extension. You can download it from Here. Also you can find more information in This Question.
