Visual Studio 2022 Installer Setup

I need assistance installing Visual Studio 2022 on Windows 11 and creating an MSI installer for it.

I am a Visual Basic developer, but have hit a problem creating an installer and would like some assistance/guidance.

I recently updated the application to use Nuget packages and Net 8.0 and am struggling getting the dlls to install correctly. The VS installation creator is picking up the wrong sql server and system dlls.

The application includes two extensions, Component One and DevExpress

I suspect the problem might be because the extensions are using different versions of the system and sql server dlls.

Is this something you can help with please?


Requirements:
- Create an MSI installer for the setup of a desktop application

Ideal Skills:
- Experience with Visual Studio 2022 and Net 8.0
- Proficient in creating MSI installers
- Understanding of system and Microsoft smo / sql server
